I think that general routers, such as TP-LINK products, become obsolete faster than Google routers because they only receive one or two firmware updates with no significant feature additions during their product cycle.

Not really, because other than things like newer standards (that'd necessitate new hardware anyway) there isn't really any changes that need to made once it works.

It isn't new features and standards. It is not ending up part of a botnet with no user interaction.
