No, I won't, because if I forgot to update my /etc/fstab file after I
moved things around, my swap partitions won't be where they used to
be, and unless I'm watching the console and see that swapon failed, I
might not remember to fix them.

I'd rather something that's not quite figured right fail immediately,
so I know to fix it, instead of trying to limp on in the face of my
forgetfulness and thus causing problems later.
