As far as I heard, it does not break. But the attack power degrades over time, you seem to need it for the better ending.
And I really don't know a single place where you need more than two stamina upgrades to get to.

I have 3 stamina upgrades (6 hearts) and there are still places I come up short on being able to climb. My next two are going to be stamina so i have a full second wheel.

 

I think it was a video but I though I heard there are 190 shrines (47.5 upgrades one way or the other) has anyone else heard this?
