You can be, and are incredibly and extraordinarily lucky.
Have you seen the way they handle it? I've caught a glimpse of my bike bag being thrown around like a rag dolls to the plane's hold.
still turned out fine, packed it with bubblewrap, clothes and cardboard enough to give it a good protection.
however, if you wrapped the bike with bubblewrap only, then the baggage handler can see it's a delicate item and treat it with respect, hopefully.
