The comments show the article is indeed interesting:

"a mean time to failure rating of two million hours"
It'd be nice to know the lifespan in write cycles per cell as well.
Given that it uses 4 bit cells, that could be less than one might
think as we're no longer talking binary at the cell level - it's back
to analogue.

A raid array of SD cards?

Actually given their small size, low write speed and unreliability -

Quick invent a silly name with no vowels and call the VCs
