tonearm bearings. How do we attach cartridge without ruining bearings?

I have always taken the tonearm or headshell off of table to tighten cartridges.  When a cartridge is tightened isn't there a possibility of ruining the bearing in the tonearm if the arm is not removed to allow tightening of cartridge fasteners?

That's why I like my Dynavector 501 arm, with the removeable headshell. Myself, I'm always worried about damaging the stylus/cantilever when mounting a cartridge. Adds to the challenge, I'm glad I don't have to worry about mounting a $15,000 one!
