That’s true. CD-RW “burners”, to keep accurate phrasing would’ve been well described as “melters”. They melted the medium, and erasing it was just melting it back.
I still miss them, so convienent in the mid 2000s era cars that could play CDs loaded with decent quality MP3s.

But I remember you could only do it X times before you’d actually be able to corrupt your data. Never had that happen, but it always felt a bit scary.
To be fair, practically every medium from tape to HDD to SSD has a limit. But CD-RW was a lot more vulnerable to data loss in my memory.
