Gate check has never happened to me other than on small regional aircraft where the bags are immediately available on the jetway upon deplaning. It has never happened to me because I choose years ago to trade volume for certainty. My carry-on is a B&R U119CX and it is slightly smaller than the maximum dimensions. Even if the gate agents are running people through the sizer they often just wave me through.
