And the only viable mitigation strategies involve giving Apple more money.
Spec'ing a larger onboard SSD to spread out the writes for hopefully longer endurance should be effective.
And, perhaps, opting for more RAM to reduce VM writes to disk? I'm not sure if that's effective. Perhaps the resulting sleep file will be larger as well, resulting on more writes overall. I'm sure somebody can chime in on that?
At least the newer models have SD card slots; can use SD cards for semidurable storage. They are obviously unsuitable for some things, but fine for others.
