Running on dry pavement hard on carbide studs?

Just as I got my Marathon Winters on my bike, the temps went from -25F to +30F and the roads have gone from thick ice to clear except for the occasional sheltered spot. Since there are still some slick spots and a few snow patches, does it hurt the carbide studs to run them on dry asphalt 90% of the time just to have some insurance for those few slippery spots or in case the conditions change? Kind of a PITA to change tires due to a warm spell mid-winter but I want to get a lot of riding in while the conditions are good.
