These things might have more durable metal bits, but if the insulator does not stand up, or is not the right heat range, then the plug is going to be toast anyways.
I have two years on mine, 40 or 50,000 miles, and are running well. I will pull them in a few weeks and see how they are doing and see how the gap is. Last year I closed the gap to .035 to go along with the higher boost.
If they are being pulled every year for inpection and gapping, the regular plugs make good sense. The exotic plugs make sense in engines where changing the plugs is a major pain or next to impossible. Can you say Saab V6?
I got into those plugs because a hardware store in Canada was selling a box of four for the price of one. Could not resist.
