Before I opened the article I was thinking "Don't use an SD card. Don't use an SD card. Don't use an SD card."
People don't understand that 90% of the SD card problems are power related (only relevant if you don't use the official power supply) and 10% are simply because of poor SD card quality.
People haven't gotten the message that a charger has lower QC standards since an interruption of the charging process does not shut the device down. A bug that leads to a few milliseconds of power loss will pass QC, but also corrupt your SD card.
Penny drops. Yes this jives much better with the observed data -- that Rpi break SD cards orders of magnitude more than anything else that uses SD cards no matter how crappy said cards are.
Problem could have been solved by adding a decent sized capacitor on the 5v supply rail.
