However, can anyone confirm that it is possible to use 2 piston mtb calipers with the road STI's? I feel like SLX or XT should be more sturdy than the road specific calipers
You can plug them in and they'll work, but they might not 'feel right'. I wouldn't bother myself. There's no durability benefit, they work in the same way, you just got unlucky.

I have. Not due to abuse, not due to bad maintenance, it was only 800km old. It just leaked.
It was so easy to change it though :)
