Smart man, little air cooled gas engines aren't constant duty, they'll fail pretty early on in their life running 24/7.

Wrong IMO. It’s not going to get any hotter running it for hours than it will in say the first 30 min. Change the oil every couple day and rock on.

So what were generators built to do then? They aren’t lawn mowers meant to run for an hour at a time, a generator is literally built to run all day. Most people need then a handful of times a year. Doing that or for a hurricane is literally their life.

You're dumb
I've been using the same Onan gas generator every year since we got it for Hurricane Andrew....got us through many of hurricanes and weekends at the camp.
This generator is probably older than you
