    I thought I had moved most of my high disk io areas off the SD card on
    to an SSD, but the SD card still died, so presumably I missed something.

    Just go full ssd. The Pi4 can boot from usb disk without an sd card.

    I had to retire an RPI4 because first the microsd connector fell off
    then when I booted from the USB3 connector the boot stick got too hot to
    touch.
