It is not a mere notion, fortunately, the field of electronic engineering is empirical.

That means these things have been tested, in laboratory situations, which have been duplicated by others as per Scientific Method.

The only detriment to doing that is that the number of Write cycles is indeed going to be limited before problems may incur.

Worse Case Scenario is an SSD that can't be reclaimed.

Engineering fields, we cannot guess, we cannot imply, unlike a lot of other professions, we go directly to jail when the bridge collapses, man.
