I forgot to unmount my microSD before ejecting it. I immediately put it back in after getting the notification about unsafely removed SD card. I went quickly through my large number of files and saw no signs of data corruption. My phone is Galaxy A22, and my OS is Android 13. Could I have missed something? Can any problems emerge in the future because of my blunder?
Question I forgot to unmount my microSD before ejecting. Is there a reason to worry about data corruption?

You're most likely fine. Corruption typically happens if the phone is in the middle of a read/write operation when the card is removed. If you weren't doing anything on the phone at the time, chances are there was no read/write going on.
