Hi EJP,
In my opinion...
If your steppers can loose count during use then that is a big problem which should be addressed and corrected before anything else.
Steppers will always loose 'exact' position (if micro-stepping is being used) when everything is switched off so if you rely on referencing then it should be repeated when a machine is first switched on again.
