I think hes referring to the times when the lowcap runs out and you fire a few dry shots before you realize your out and reload. As where this would happen far less often with a hicap.
Exactly

Your a little too much involved in your anti-nubs slayer thing grey No offense

Thanks for the answer @Minus
Your question does not fit the thread-starter's. He's shooting the gun INTENTIONALLY for shits and giggles. That is really bad for the gun.

What you wrote: "So, if I use lowcaps, I multiply by like 50 time the chance of breaking my AEG?... That's really bad, but on another side, it would force me to count my fired BBs.."

Nobody reads minds. Formulate your point clearly instead of making folks guess what you mean, then you'll get a correct answer.
Dry-firing by mistake (and stopping immediately) is not the issue.
If you would have said; "Will the same thing happen if I use low-caps and miss a few shots when they go empty?", the answer would have come faster.

This is a written forum. Be clear or cope with what folks think they read.
