As I understand it, the LR has the same battery pack and motor as the Performance and that software is the only difference that changes the acceleration from 4.8 to 3.5 in the 0-60 mph run? Wouldn't the reduced stress on the components for the LR compared to the Performance mean there will be less issues with longevity and problems related to more stress on the related components?

Will the dual Motor LR have less issues and last longer than the Performance?

seems like it would be more of a factor related to your foot. If you have the Performance, you have the option to go faster when you want...that would be the only time there is more "stress". So completely up to the driver. Without the Performance you don't have the option to accelerate faster during those times when it is "needed".
That makes sense. However, my last car was a Hellcat and it's too tempting to use that power if it's there.
If that's the case, then get the performance... if you are tempted to use it if you have it, then you would be disappointed not to have it at all.

At first view, I was thinking that the title was
"Will the Dual Motor LR AWD have less issues and last longer than the LR RWD ?"
I think the answer is quite obvious.

Depends if Tesla figured out the voltage sag issues with P3D. Judging by performance tests done by Youtubers this does appear to have been mitigated so I’d expect software limited LYD’s to do pretty decently.
