As an elite flyer, we're less likely to be kicked off a plane, more likely to be handled better in IRROPS, and less likely to have a bag lost (because we're less likely to check one )
I check bags all the time. Even if it's a carry on I'll often check it.

Once in my life (30+ years ago) my bags managed to make a trip to Australia somewhere on the way back from Europe. Other than that, I've never once had my bags not get to my destination with me.
