I'm not saying don't swap cards, I'm saying if you mess with the little beggars taking them in and out enough. don't be surprised if they fail more often than a full size SD card or USB key.
And by the way, The McDonalds coffee thing is the OPPOSITE of what you are suggesting this is. The coffee is hot, and the are stating the obvious. In this case you seem to be suggesting the cards do not have any concern over frequent handling and yet they are saying so anyway.

Actually I said that they are probably not as robust as regular SDs, so they are covering their asses. That's not to say that handled carefully they are more likely to break, only that they may be more prone to breaking, it just means you have to handle them a bit more carefully than regular SDs. Rather than get sued by those who don't handle them carefully they use the legalese. Your comment about some of the tight situations they're used in are also relevant. And to get back on topic, I'd still prefer to be able to swap one on a regular basis than have no slot at all.
