At one time this was very true, and in some ways it can still be true.
parts like the fans wear out, and due to the space constraints in a laptop
this is more critical, and there are some thermal considerations to think
about as well. but as long as you are giving decent airflow around the
laptop, and you are prepared to swap a fan sooner than later it should have
no real impact on the hardware.
I run mine for work 9+ hours straight and the previous one i had did this
for 4.4 years before it finally got weird enough to be replaced.
I would most definitely enable power savings on your monitor because that
screan can suffer from burnout, and its not as easy to replace as a monitor.

A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from
rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button.
