For long run times, you will naturally reduce the chlorine output of your system proportionately (otherwise you would greatly over-chlorinate your pool), so that reduces wear-and-tear. For further optimization, choosing a model which uses a "duty cycle" (switching the unit's chlorine generation on/off internally based on the output setting) should offer even more improvement on minimizing wear-and-tear for pools with long run times.
In other words, if you left it running at 100% for all day, yes that would maximize its wear - but if you're keeping your pool's balance on target and properly adjusting a properly-sized chlorine generator, it doesn't work out like that.
