If, =if= you use another method to lock the parts in place, for

act like a spring and keep things a little more snug if the parts
become loose, but temperature change or a stretched bolt is the only
reasonable situation I can picture that being an issue.
Thermal cycling is not mentioned on the wikipedia site
but I thought that
thermal cycling may have been the reason that Belleville washers were
