I've worked on old equipment for years and have been saying for years that this kind of thing is STUPID. Funny thing is very few people ever seem to think about things logically enough to realize just how stupid things are getting. Just like full on electric cars...true they won't have a engine, but how much electricity is gonna have to be made and sent through the lines to charge it's batteries, and aren't batteries considered hazardous waste??? How much extra pollution is being put in the air from all the extra manufacturing needed to take the old "junk" that lasted 30 years before wearing out and recycle it three of four times because the new junk only lasts 5 years before repeating the process??? Like the one post suggests the problem is there are too many "educated idiots" that have no real world experience with things us "normal people" do and as a result can't think past the end of their political,engineering, or whatever degree they happen to have....but because they have that esteemed piece of paper showing that degree they know more than the rest of us what's good for all of us........
