> Also, there’s some concern that continuous swapping prematurely ages SSDs, reducing the overall lifetime of laptops. The modern trend is to solder storage chips directly to the main board, making them difficult to replace.

You have to thrash a full drive QUITE hard to cause any significant wear, all modern drives take care of themselves and the filesystems report which blocks are unused to let the SSD take care of itself.

Surely it's a concern in a server environment and some other "spacebar heating" workflow but in reality it doesn't happen.
