I guess that someone who is constantly using the fixture could theoretically wear the aluminum slot edges with a hardwood runner, but the risk is still pretty small. Using HPDE as someone else has mentioned could mitigate that. I think the flexibility of "drop on" is worth any small risk of wear, but others might feel differently.
