There is no suggestion I could find suggesting a Trim issues in OS X, other than an anecdotal report by an individual who appears to have extrapolated information far beyond what seems reasonable, then decided to champion the perceived threat in a manner suggesting FUD.SUMMARY:
1) the issue raised by Algolia is due to a Linux kernel error
2) Linux kernel error can affect any SSD under the same operating conditions
3) Samsung has also posted a Linux kernel patch that should fix the issue
UPDATE July 17, 2015:
We have just finished a conference call with Samsung considering the failure analysis of this issue. Samsung engineering team has been able to successfully reproduce the issue with our latest provided binary.
Samsung had a concrete conclusion that the issue is not related to Samsung SSD or Algolia software but is related to the Linux kernel.
Samsung has developed a kernel patch to resolve this issue and the official statement with details will be released tomorrow, July 18 on Linux community with the Linux patch guide. Our testing code is available on GitHub.
This has been an amazing ride, thank you everyone for joining, we have arrived at the destination.
SSDs will function without Trim, but I continue to believe they will function better with it enabled.
Don't forget, no matter what type of drive you use, SSD or HD, Trim or no Trim, if you don't have a least two copies of your data (on at least two difference drives), you may not have your data at all. So back it up!
PS: Sorry I got sorta' worked up in my last post. I had fun writing it, though!
