It may be true that more Creedmoor barrels are wearing out. Not because they are barrel burners but because they are fun to shoot and folks are shooting them more and more often. Hard to wear out a 300 Win Mag barrel when you can only stand to shoot it 1/2 dozen times before you are beat up from recoil. I know when I go out with my Creedmoor I average around 40 shots per session and tend to go out at least once per week. With my 30-06 I would only take it out a handfull of times per year.
