Is your view that spokes are braking of lack of tension, not because of
fatigue? I thought the tension doesn't affect spoke life, unless it is
so woefully low that they completely lose their tension. That can be
felt while riding, and since Arthur didn't mention it, I'm assuming that
they're not that loose.
My advice: stress relieve.
