> SSDs have a lot more aggressive error correction than most filesystems
Most filesystems do not do any error correction. ZFS, btrfs, ReFS, bcachefs are a few notable exceptions. And for the most part these schemes are for multiple device resilience - which is architected quite differently from the schemes used in an SSD or tape (yes, even tape).
> Tapes at rest don't have to worry about that though.
This isn't really true. Pretty much every physical medium at the densities used in modern time requires robust error correction because all physical media has flaws either manufactured or acquired from wear and degradation. For instance, modern LTO tapes use relatively robust 2D Reed-Solomon forward error correction similar to DVD/Blu-Ray.
