If you can, run iosnoop in background and note every program that writes 4kb chunks a lot. These are wearing your SSD down. And no, they will not be combined together because most of these shitty apps have O_DIRECT flag set or call fsync()

Google had to solve same problem any new traditional gaming console has to solve -- get publishers interested in creating for that console. Good luck with that. The moat is so high that even if you have tech from year 2222, the business sid
