In my experience this isn't caused by exhausting the endurance of the flash. It seems like a lot of SD cards have really buggy firmware. And that Linux running on a RPi is particularly prone to triggering these bugs. Industrial SD cards seem to hold up better.

Early iterations of the RPi boards apparently had some bad design choices in the power circuitry, which makes the problem worse.
