Have you had a wheel lock up due to a catastrophic bearing failure?
In over 45 years of driving I have not.
In the 30+ years I was in the auto repair business I witnessed one case of a failed bearing-because the mechanic adjusted the bearing too tight and the bearing failed while the customer was driving home.
Re-packing the bearings when replacing a rotor is fairly standard. But the OP wasn't having the rotors replaced.
