I also prefer this , as if I lose one card for one reason or another (lost card or damaged, etc) atleast its not a HUGE amount of files gone at once.

I also keep multiple back ups of my images as a safety measure. Two external hard drives (one I usually keep at work) and I also have a cloud backup system in place. This ensures minimal if any loss of data occurs should something happen
I like this approach. I am of the same opinion, i hate having to lug around more than i have to when i travel and often leave the laptop at home and just come back and process all the images.
