Lifetime What is the real lifetime of EEpromEEPROM?

ATMEL says the cell lifetime of an EEPROM cell is about 100,000 write cycle/ cell. IfIs this actually how the EEPROM performs in the wild?

If I do not change the value of a cell, does this stress the lifetime? For example, if I write the value 0xFF0xFF to the same cell again and again, is this any different to writing 0x000x00, 0xFF0xFF, 0x000x00 etc.

If iI do not change the value of a cell, does this stress the lifetime  ? e.g. For example, if I write the value 0xFF to the same cell again and again, is this any different to writing word with values between 0-2550x00, 0xFF, 0x00 etc.
