I've seen tests where a piece of .223 brass was loaded 18 times in one session by a guy on Accurate shooter who had the equipment on hand at the range to do so. I simply don't buy that pistol brass can weaken to the point of failure before the mouth splits.
In 30 years of reloading, I've only seem pistol brass fail from splits.... (assuming there wasn't an overcharge of propellant) And even mouth splits are fairly rare in non-revolver brass.
