So far, so good when it comes to not inadvertently removing valve cores. I do carry a couple of spare valve cores in the saddle bag as a backup.
Yeah, well, I can do these things. And I will. I just ordered a couple of valve core tools to put in my two tool bags. I'm annoyed at the screw on hose and the fact that it has apparently become common for tubes to come with loose valve cores. This wasn't a concern back in the day.
