"Also, stop dropping the slide on an empty chamber.
This practice batters the mating surfaces of the hammer & sear."

Well, what happens when the gun is fired? Doesn't the hammer drop on the sear then? The slide is moving forward faster than it does when manually released, so the hammer-sear contact should be faster and harder.
