Which means you can now run a ~1TB database (poorly) on a $35 raspberry pi by adding a $450 card. Adjusted for 1990 inflation, that $500 becomes $298, though obviously it's not a very practical setup for somebody who would actually need a 1TB database.

I get you’re joking, but I wouldn’t trust a RPi anywhere near this card because of all the card corruption the RPi has done.

That’s strange, never experienced any issues. Do you use proper power supply?

It’s arguably a very common problem. Just google “raspberry pi corruption”

likely atime updates and no graceful shutdown... all filesystems are subject to that behaviour, nothing particular to RPi.

There are well documented ways for making Sd cards reliable in embedded systems.
