<p class="MsoPlainText">On a Source 4, the holes on the yoke actually fit over a protrusion on the body, and the bolt and washer go on top of that. So stripping out or even losing the bolt - even on both sides - would not automatically make it fall from the
sky. To remove the fixture from the yoke takes some twisting or prying. It's not impossible, but it's not easy, either.

<p class="MsoPlainText">I'm comfortable with just safetying the yoke. OTOH, the lights in my rig are well maintained, touched on a regular basis, and in the hands of professionals. If people in other situations are more comfortable with a safety to the body
of the lamp, that's great<span style="background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow">. I don't think either method can really be classified as universally right or wrong.</span>
