+1 Andy.

BB thread carnage doesn't just happen spontaneously, even with steel in aluminium. There has to be a sustained period where it's ridden while loose, or at least been cross-threaded, or had the wrong-side tap run through it or something.

If the the threads are lubed and undamaged already and the cup is tight, nothing can happen to the threads.
