I would say that it is easier for a ram stick to be destroyed through mishandling than through shorting on the board. Those sticks can handle some crazy electrical conditions and still work, but the chips on them can be pretty fragile to mishandling/dropping. I've shorted a whole stick across the DIMM pins and while it blew the board the stick was fine ....
