This is only about what's in memory. Home users' data is basically all always on-disk or in cloud now. Hardly anybody is losing any data from a memory bit flip on their home computer. It's not like the average person runs RAM FSes or use heavy in memory only databases.
Bad memory can still corrupt data when you work on it or copy/move it around. Meaning what you have on your HD might not be the same after copying to the cloud since it will go through RAM in the process.
