OTOH I use lots of thin spokes so twist is more of an issue for me than it is for those using 14g straight spokes or even some of the common 14g DB spokes. As far as lasting, just about anything will outlast most humans.
Why not hold spokes in position so they don't twist? I use pliers on round spokes and a small crescent wrench on bladed spooks.
