I've mixed sugar propellant for smoke generation and packed it in a 13mm case. It was about the hottest paper case I've ever touched but it didn't burn through.

Tbzep- did you 'end burn' the sugar propellant to generate smoke ?
I would think if it survived an 'end burn' in a 13mm casing it would certainly survive a 'port burn' as that burns from the center -out.

Yes, I just packed them in a used A10-3T casing.

Given tbzep's positive results with re-loading 13 mm mini motor cases, such "preservation-preparation" before every so many re-loads might enable even these thin-walled little motors to last indefinitely. If so, it would certainly make the batch production of sugar motors of the type in Teleflite Corporation's "The Incredible Five Cent Sugar Rocket" booklet (they're roughly 13 mm mini motor-size, see: https://murdercube.com/files/Electr...PPR_Zine_91.pdf and http://www.google.com/#q=the+incred...ar+rocket+pdf&* ) simpler, easier, quicker, and cheaper (after a number of motor case reuses), because the steps involved in making their gummed-paper motor cases and their putty nozzles (which are cylindrical-bore and less efficient, being formed using nails) could be omitted.
