Yousef, re:< the reduction in chip life comes from the increased
electric field across both the gate oxide and from source to drain on the FET.>

You are showing your ignorance. DRAM/SRAM has much smaller transistors and hence much higher electric fields but the primary determinant of reliability, even in DRAM, is junction temperature.
