it's not just stern. Did you see the thread about someone posting, that showed all the stops on their JJP hobbit drop bank. Every single coil stop sheered off every bolt on the entire bank.

Quoted from zaphX:

IMO it's worth buying a few coil stops just to have on hand. If one blows you can fix in 60 seconds. Eventually you'll need to replace them due to wear anyway, so either way it's not lost money.

I hardly ever have to replace stops. Even on games 30 or 40 years old. The stops are rarely mushroomed. And if they are you can file down the edge. Usually in a rebuild, the only thing you have to do is clean the plunger and replace the sleeve. On rare occasions, the link gets worn out and needs to be replaced or the plunger mushrooms some. but not often.
