I thought the issue was duty cycle, and that low refresh rates kept the screen working longer. Has e-ink tech gotten around this?

That's what I'm wondering about. I wouldn't mind temporary higher energy usage to get smoother interactions, but I'm not sure what the long-term impact on the screen is.
I’d recommend watching the video below, where we talk about how fast refresh affects a panel’s lifespan.
