It is true that in this particular case, bad stuff happening is somewhat unlikely, since the dominant factor by far should be lift, which will keep the surface up. But even so, say you hit a bump during takeoff roll etc, or during very high positive G maneuvers, you have no guarantee of that surface not coming down. In general, flying with unpowered servos and considering that surface locked is very a very dangerous practice indeed.
