[OM] Without a lens cap

I had a discussion with an ebay seller.  He told me that he never
used a lens cap on the lens, but simply put the lens back into an
Olympus hard case.  The lens was a 135mm f2.8 and the case
was for a 135mm f3.5.  I suspect the lens would not have fit into
the case with the lens cap, as the f2.8 version is a little longer
than the f3.5 version.  Am I being paranoid or does this sound
like a practice that might lead to a scratched rear element from
dust or dirt embedded in the bottom of the case?
