You're probably correct, but the media is the problem. Film is a lot more
resilliant, even if I have to wait until I get to my repairman on Monday and
keep the offending stuff in a changing bag until then. Of course, extra
cameras, backs, and lenses, are always in the camera case (a rolling
strongbox cause pro camera are heavy...so is the glass in the lenses).

Roger, you're a working pro; with film cameras you would have a backup body
(or two...) With digital, I guess you need two E-10's or E-20's, and
multiple media cards, and maybe a laptop with reader to verify contents...
just in case something 'glitches' on you. I concur that digital isn't quite
'there' yet when the chips are down.
As for medium format, if you're doing 30"x40" prints, maybe you need a 4x5
camera!
