Indeed, except if you run an in-memory overlay filesystem this might change dramatically for you. I have several Pi's that run for years and years without SD card corruption this way. Normally, however, as in my sbts-aru project, I don't just do that but also create separate data partitions that are read-write. It appears that even though there are some partitions on the card that are read-write, if they are not the system one it is also much more resilient to fatal corruption.
