Pretty impressive. I wonder how much that stresses the transmission and suspension.

Not much, rated for unlimited use as long as you allow a minute and or 1 mile of travel between launches. I guess to let the clutch cool down.

The November issue of Excellence magazine reported that the Porsche test drivers couldn't do more than 20 secessive "launches" with PDK because of neck strain.

For reference --
It feels like taking off in a modded 996 TT.
The first 911 to come out since my 3.4l 996 that I'm tempted to trade up to.

I'm sure that there is a practical reason for launch control somewhere

Just doing a little research 
Have to be able to show the customers how it works.
Surprisingly I used the Dynolicious app on my iPhone and we were able to match Porsche's numbers down to within 100ths of a second.
