No one cares about how much ink they have, they care about being able to print what they need to. If the toner expires before you would use it, then it doesn't matter if you're left with a drop or a gallon.

Toner cartridges last for years and years - but even still, a new starter cartridge isn't going to have way way less toner, but enough to change the economics. Some brother FAQ pages say like 66%.

Toner is just a container with little balls of plastic.

Ink, sure, but this conversation was about laser.
