I read that many threads ago and inquired about new holders, which I have yet to purchase, so it is in progress.
After originally reading about them and the damage they can do, I panicked and got them out of my safety deposit box. Thankfully, 20 yrs ago when I received them, I didn't screw them down too tight as the cards did not stick nor looked damaged.
I did put both cards back in the cubes, and likely screwed them down less than what I originally did, until I get some better holders.
I am not doubting cubes can cause damage, although I have never seen an example here, but these cards have always been stored in a dark place with not a lot of humidity/temperature fluctuations.
