I'd say 1/3rd is a rather large chunk of an SSDs TBW if its just for hibernating. In practice, for reasons you outlined, it would be a smaller amount but I would only find 1-2% tolerable.
Chances are, the computer will break or be replaced in five years or less. It doesn’t really matter if you reach 2%, 33%, or even 90% of the TBW if the system or component is replaced before it uses up all its writes.

I think this is less and less true as time goes on. I have a laptop from 5 ish years ago I still use and it's actually pretty fast.
And, even so, it's not like the ONLY wear on your SSD is the hibernation. So this 5 year figure, I'm not sure it's right. I think, maybe if you're someone who stresses your hard drives a lot (maybe you work with photography or videography?) hibernation might make an impactful difference.
