I often use Save as... It's how I make back-up or I use it when making a video and I'm doing changes to a sim or household that I don't want to be permanent. I have tons of saved files in my game, but I include my year count in the names so I can easily delete those that were meant to be temporary saves.
I never had any trouble with this, but I recall there was some warning against "save and quit", but that might have been back in TS3 for a limited period... not sure.
I think that was mostly TS3. Something about having to force close the program? TS4 has also done this to me a few times, though I haven’t actually lost a save.
I typically use “save as” if I’m worried I won’t like an outcome or if I’m testing something. I usually give test saves dumb names like memes.
