Microsteppeing drives

I realise that in an open loop stepper situation it is possible to lose
steps. I don't think other than a physical stall I have even had this
happen but it's some think you don't know.
With a micro stepping drive taking the inertia needed to overcome friction
is it more likely for one of these to miss steps than a full or half step
system.??
Just enquiring
