I appreciate the reply, but my warning consumer SSD is not incorrect. Perhaps I should have clarified that While they typically have a small overprovisioning of 7%, enterprise SSDs have close to 4 times as much, exactly to allow more writes (which is very relevant if running a ZFS raid on the drive). Keeping 10-20% headroom will prolong your SSD's life significantly, and increase performance of ZFS.
