The fact that you're had no data recording issues so far only means that
you're lucky you haven't hit them.  There *HAVE* been a number of them
found over the years.  Clearly either:

1) Your usage of GnuCash hasn't hit one of the bugs, or
2) You have hit the bug but haven't noticed your data loss.
