I haven't seen any corruption in a long time running ext3. Corrupt root
filesystem is also likely to be a bigger problem in general where a
seperate /boot wouldn't help at all.

I didn't see /tmp listed anywhere, so I was wondering.

No overhead I have ever noticed. Any overhead would be completely
insignificant compared to the overhead of swapping to disk.
