Retort: 99% of SSD manufacturers are concerned their users have no realistic conception of their drive utilization metrics.
Many of these drives have R/W cycle endurances that would support many years of non-stop 100% utilization. For most, the R/W cycles of these drives will be more than adequate. I'd characterize the real problem as people not knowing what load they generate: equipped to understand the lifecycle provisioning requirements, most people would see rather quickly SSDs R/W cycle limitations are not at all threatening.
