You raise a good point, however:
1. Read/Write issues with the current(new) generation of technology removes this issue.
SSD are widely used now in data centres without issues where read/writes are many, many magnitudes greater than home users
2. Also the regular disks/spinners read/write sequentially, hence the need to keep everything aligned by defraging
SSD's work completely different, they have controllers that work with the random data placement, so defraging is less of an issue.
