> but most people want to simply be able to run common class 10 card (e.g. from Verbatim, Kingston, Sandisk), using a standard OS setup and leave the Pi running without having it corrupting your file

To be fair: try the same with cellphones. I have a shitload of micro-SD cards gone bad on me, and yes genuine SanDisk not cheap fakes off of Amazon.

microSD cards are the cheapest crappy flash chips you can get with a microcontroller strapped in front for error correction.

I don't even put SD cards in my phones anymore due to corruption. I always got the best SanDisk's I could find. Luckily my Pi that runs probably 8 hours/week hasn't failed, but I have the drive imaged just in case.
