Fair enough. Sort of got wrapped around the axle. I will simplify my arguments.

I still stand by my argument that most hardware does not degrade in performance over time. It is more realistic to see it fail suddenly and never recover.

Most performance issues are either network interference from something new added to the environment or issues with router software ( pre-existing bugs or updates introducing new issues)

I do feel like people push the degraded hardware issue to sell more routers. Most people have way more router than they need. That was my original intent. Unfortunately I made terrible arguments on the software side.
