Even without the card guides, you could get a short from slivers of copper left when the boards are cut. I was lucky -- on my first board with planes, I didn't know about putting traces along the edges, but the board shop called & asked if we'd like them to pull the planes back from the board edges! So having a good board shop can pay off...
