Yes, during the final reps of the set..if you are pushing yourself to the extreme then...the chances of slipping are there as you can loose control over the muscles.
Also they allow you to focus your last reserves of energy on controlling the weight rather than wasting energu on trying to hold it....this is extreme stuff.
But anyway I was wondering why has this "upgrade" been posted here....I thought this forum was for showing off computer hardware/software stuff...arent we pushing it a bit..?
