Excessive heat perhaps, and yeah, bulbs with bad thermal design, or bulbs installed in tight enclosures do die a lot faster.
It’s also temperature changes that cause problems. A current that flickers 50-60 times a second is not going to fluctuate it’s temperature. Turn it on or off every 10 minutes and the components will shrink or expand each time, and the components will eventually start to fail.
