Well, Pines do suffer from SD corruption just as much or as little as do the RPis. Pines don’t offer any specific advantage there, and given they’re pretty new, I doubt there’s enough experience even in this community to rely on.
You could also get a RaZberry or ZWave.me stick, that one has been around some more time, so it’s more of a thing proven to work, a RPi is more of a (exchangeable!) standard than a Pine, and it comes with the z-way software (for backing up the controller’s contents, I’ve heard different stories if that works with the Aeon).
