ttt1232- The only problem with the possible problem you describe is that the clutch doesn't slip WRT the brake shoes like it does with the drive function. The part of the clutch that the pointer is pointing at is that drive side and, yes, it's shallowly splined surface can wear and/or get glazed. But the other side of the clutch (not pointed at and being the brake shoe engaging portion) usually has two lugs or protrusions that hold the shoes from slipping WRT the clutch. Andy (who was nervous when he first overhauled a Bendix CB hub way back when and after having done a number of SA AWs and S3Cs).
