Gotchya beat.
just because you haven't yet experienced a problem doesn't mean it can't/won't happen. They are telling us, that under certain conditions these things are NG.
The solution is fairly simple; to wear a pair that won't cause, or doesn't have the potential to cause these problems. They look and function just as well, but you may not be able to use them for as wide a variety of activities outside the cockpit.
We have enough issues to manage on a regular basis, setting ourselves up knowingly ahead of time is just stupid.
