If the SSD controller isn't bugged, lifetime write limits don't result in silent data corruption; they just result in errored writes and inability to persist new data. Apple may have decided to only qual and sell SSDs that they've tested to failure, rather than throwing darts at random.

It's not clear to me if you're describing silent data corruption or detected data corruption (at the controller level), but either way Apple isn't selling Kingston NVMe SSDs; they have their own SSD controller and vendor the raw flash.
