If the device storage develops a memory fault, I expect the firmware will stop working. The card will not help you at all...

unless you mean by moving the card to a new device. And it is just as easy to simply reload a new device from calibre. No irreplaceable loss, although you could conceivably lose a few minutes of your life staring at a circular icon because you have nothing else to do while waiting for the one-time-transfer to happen.
