Just as planned ☺.

I'd replace the drive altogether. It failed you once, after all, don't
give the thing a second chance.
On the very least, I'd disable NCQ *and* get rid of 'discard' mount
option where possible *and* refresh drive firmware. Installing the
kernel from the backports is also a valid option. You may be (un)lucky
to get that kind of SSD that tend to corrupt data if you look at it the
wrong way.

And do not trust smartctl. It's good for conventional drives that have
a courtesy to warn you before they die. SSDs usually die first, and
maybe smartctl will warn you later ;)

I see a little point of reinstalling the whole system. As long as it
boots and gives you a root access - there's nothing that can't be fixed
in the system itself with good old 'apt-get install --reinstall'.

And you have a backup of user data, so there's nothing of value would
be lost in any case.

Not in your case. I predict that you'll see more filesystem-related
faults with the root cause being faulty SSD. And it's impossible (to my
best knowledge) to repair a drive with mkfs.
