I was wondering how well the heat shrink holds up over time on keyboard cable if you unplug and re-plug them in a couple times a week

No problems with the heatshrink. One of my boards I'd disconnect every day because the back lighting would stay on. Heatshrink still looks fine.

The port typically gives out, before the soft stuff does

Do these things work better?

"The Trump campaign announced in a letter that Republican candidates and committees are now expected to pay “a minimum of 5% of all fundraising solicitations to Trump National Committee JFC” for using his “name, image, and likeness in fundraising solicitations.”
“Any split that is higher than 5%,” the letter states, “will be seen favorably by the RNC and President Trump's campaign and is routinely reported to the highest levels of leadership within both organizations.”"

No need. You really shouldn't be worried about the heat shrink.

I think the future is those magnetic cables, so you don't ruin the jack.
