There's a bit more contact in the middle of the pitch compared to the wings, maybe also more constant running compared to a bit more sprinting in the wide areas, but in general, I agree with you.
Pedri has missed a lot of games due to injuries in his short career.
Most players want to play even if they are hurt or their lack of fitness is hurting the team. It’s why you have coach’s and other eyes to save players from themselves
Of course he wants to play they all do. But it's worth pointing out that he's had a lot of hamstring and muscular injuries already. Great player but sometimes even great players have to be managed correctly.
So what is the point you want to make with your post. People blame arteta for not rotating and the fact that it can cause injuries to players. You brought up a shit take about pedri which actually validates what everyone has been saying. Players always want to play but good managers manage them well but the bad ones fail to do so.
Pedri: “People say I play a lot, never rotate… but it’s way better for me!”.
“I like to play, I want to play. I suffer more when I’m not playing as my body is not used to it, so it’s more difficult to recover”.

Arteta brainwashed Pedri as well...
Barcas attack is balanced 34% on left side 30% through the middle 36% on the right.
Arsenal 32% left, 24% middle, 45% right
The Odegaard effect.
Lack of impact through the middle, demands the ball to his side like a magnet. The core of most of our problems.
No. Arteta effect.
If Pedri plays a lot then Saka plays even more.
Cumulative wise, Saka’s minutes shit on Pedri’s and there’s only one year between the two.
Not to mention the difference in physicality between both leagues and the extra rough treatment Saka receives with some of the refs blessing.

A lot of injuries in his short career. Lengthy ones as well.
