Nobody should, but we may have to in case the government seizes of all your belongings.
Even then there's probably better ways of doing this. I've seen loci work in the short term, however the long term data on it isn't great, since I know for a fact that the things I once remembered with it, aren't as great in my memory as when I did then years ago. Thus, I would say unless you're accessing this information in your brain frequently, it'll deteriorate. If you're using this technique or practicing it, then you need a way of verifying it, since your memory is definitely susceptible to inaccuracy.

I'd have to give it a little think, but I'm sure that there's other ways of doing this that doesn't solely rely on your memory, because quite frankly I don't believe that most people have the discipline to remember this, and practice it frequently enough to keep it sound in their memory.
