Did you consider using plastic lens caps instead of extension tubes?

Not nearly strong enough. Would you risk your lens to save that little bit of $?

Exactly!

I'm wondering if this is used for the easy 2 lens swaps or the juggle of 3 lenses.

Both, depending upon the circumstances. But I prefer to carry just a second lens when I can, because it does make for eaiser -- and safer! -- swaps between them.
