Rod bearing inspection after replacement?

Forgive me if this has been covered before, but I'm a new E90 M3 owner and this whole rod bearing thing has me spooked. My car is a 2011 with 25k miles, so I'm not too worried just yet.

My question is, has anyone pulled out the bearings after replacement to inspect and make sure this whole thing isn't reoccurring? You can find a billion posts of the original bearings being taken out and shown how horrible they are. But you don't see any posts about anyone taking out the BE bearings (for example) after 20-30k miles. If those posts exist, then I haven't found them.
