Okay, okay... I know comparisons can -sometimes- be counterproductive but
most of the time help a lot :-)

Well, no "black magic"... I was aware of the problem (maybe I read about
that behaviour in another mailing list or just noticed via RSS, anyway,
it was "old news" for me -it was noticeable in other distros, BTW-).
For instance:
https://encrypted.google.com/search?complete=0&hl=en&source=hp&biw=1280&bih=839&q=load_cycle_count&btnG=Google+Search
https://encrypted.google.com/search?hl=en&complete=0&biw=1280&bih=839&q=load_cycle_count+smartctl&btnG=Search
Can give you a start point for digging.
