I have never, ever had an HDMI cord, or a VGA cord for that matter, disconnect unintentionally. I haven’t turned those screws in years.

My old laptop's vga port had no screw holes. After years of plugging cables in and out of that port it eventually became loose and unable to hold onto a cable well enough to provide decent contact. In short, vga cables very rarely fell off but they most certainly did became loose and lost signal quality.
