So, "never" is a pretty strict standard...
But what happens if your bag gets misdirected and you don't get it back for several days? I once made a simple trip to Lisbon and KLM had a devil of a time getting my checked baggage to me because it kept "missing flights." I lived out of a carry-on for far too many days.
