Not sure what you mean the shutter is being subjected to light when not exposing...the reflex mirror is sending the light up through the pentaprism, and right out the back of the camera...the shutter is exposed to light for a few milliseconds before it begins the exposure....and then the mirror comes back down...
Burning a hole in a focal plane shutter dates from the rangefinder era with rubberized silk shutters, not modern, titanium-alloy or high-tech composite shutters with a honking reflex mirror in front of them...
