Firming up the Memory issue

I dont know if anyone else has noticed this but my NXT is often telling that with 20kb of space that it can not accept a Bright Turn Right Dark Turn Left line following program which when finally installed was no where near that big. Defragmentation might be a big problem. It requires either that you take off all your programs, and some time (as per the Help file) re-firmware (defrag) your NXT. Further still this firmware update as according to NXT Hacks @ http://nxt.natulte.net/trac/wiki/ElectricStorm is detrimental in the long term because,
"the lock bits, which let firmwares write-protect themselves, are only guaranteed for about a hundred toggles."
That means that if you are often "reformating" your NXT one day it may break.
