might be an issue with ANY kind of BB, but it shouldn't be worse with cartridge bearings since the right cup is always installed and tightened first, before the rest of the BB is installed.
Keep in m ind that bicycle BBs were routinely installed both in Italy and England for about a century without any adhesives or special prep, except greased threads and proper torquing.
