Using different gears for wear prevention?

Do any of you make a point to use differing gears so as not to wear out certain cogs prematurely?

I'm almost always in the 15 or 17 tooth cogs and middle chainring. I was just reading how the smaller cogs can wear out a chain quicker than larger ones. I'm gonna switch it up to 23 and 26 & the large chainring for a while. I do have concerns about crosschaining and extra noise but so be it.

The thread titled "Anyone Tracking Gear Usage" got me thinking about this.
