I ask because of the Hippocratic oath we should take when giving advice. "First,do no harm". If you have enough evidence to refute the cummulative wisdom of the experts, we're all ears & eyeballs.

I was stating"either or" no seal with splash or seal with grease. These bearings are called "anti-friction bearing" and yes the cumulative wisdom is just fear mongering and people are making money on this. The real issue is people not using their cars causing their bearing to pit from corrosion. Without pitting the bearing would not wear in the cars useful life.
Out of the machinery's Handbook or bible to most Machinist and Mechanical Engineers.
Picture of pitting, from google search.
Here is some reference, maybe I should charge for doing some research on the subject? Btw I have owned my "porsche" for 1 year now so new to this fear, but my hobbies and daily job allow me to analyse it a little further.
