I would consider such laptops not fit for purpose and wouldn't buy one in the first place. Of course, that doesn't help if that's the sort you have. Sorry.
If ease of repair is what you care about, then yes.
But in absolute terms, sockets do make things more likely to fail. A socketed design means you have an assembly step where something is put into that socket. Probably manually. Cables and sockets can be tugged at and twisted. Dirt and moisture can get in between. Suppliers can use the wrong metal in connectors. Some errors will be caught by QC, which means that you never see them, but they still affect the manufacturer's bottom line.
Like bot403 said: "Just depends on what your priorities are."
Regardless, if you're concerned about the logging of beta software prematurely wearing out your SSD, then don't use beta software. It's not ready for release anyway, by definition. It's there so you can help test it for the developers. Logging is an important part of that.
