Nothing's fool proof.
My real world experience with both formats (40,000 exposures on CF cards, 60,000 exposures on SD cards) is that both work fine in my hands. But I much prefer the SD cards for their size, ease of getting in and out of the camera and reader. I have had ZERO problem SD cards, and ONE problem CF card. SD card contacts are a broad, self-wiping design, and easy to clean, so dirt on them is much less of an issue than a bent pin in a CF card cage.
