I don't think the comparison to taking your car to a mechanic is a good one. When I take my car to a mechanic they are returning it to a stock configuration. They don't need to update to a new, slightly different power steering this month, new brakes next, then injectors....

Certainly. But it's being compared to not taking systems down to do maintenance at all.

Then they find a compatability problem and the car n3eds to be rebuilt
