I think it's just expected to bite. That said, after a couple gate covers went AWOL at Inland Empire, the resetters started hitting the panel--and hard--near the velcro. If they did that, it didn't leave. If they didn't, they were taking their chances.

Thinking maybe someone should start packing Velcro or Dual Lock strips with the field zipties.
