Oh, man, I should have known this earlier. )-: I did it the hard way: I
copied about 500 GB to another drive, deleted the rest and then did
quick format of the SSD to exFAT. It runs fine now. (I'm not in the
process of copying everything back.)

The SSD ran fine under W11, after the scan, so I think Disk Management
wasn't a problem either. I didn't look at it.

I will make of note of

chkdsk <drive_letter>:

because I did exactly what you suggested: I didn't safely unmount the
SSD from my smartphone. Could this also be the cause of the problem?

I just learned 2 ways to safely unmount the SSD. There was a
notification giving me this option and it should also be possible with
the Files app. I assume it's also possible with Total Commander.

Well, it's working now. I had no chance to try chkdsk, so if it happens
again I'll certainly try that. For now, I blame the problem on me not
safely unmounting the SSD.
