Yes, true about small amount of writing to low-priority swap, but really small amount.
And, this swap is not yet fragmented, as we start switchswap about 10% (or similar) before maximum reached.
Then it should work flawlessly.

I did not have any negative effects with my setup (main swap on SD with eMMC always on with lower priority; dis-/reenabling SD swap after 700MB written).
