You could potentially strip the thread on the lock ring too
It is not really a lock ring though is it and doesn't need to be done up that tightly (how may people have a problem stripping the thread on their cassette hubs as it is the same thing)
And the chance of damaging the splines is reduced by use of cogs with 7mm base.
Anyway, having had both formats I prefer simple spline over 6 bolts.
