How low the quality bar has gotten! A device with a battery is now considered "worn out" after a measly 3 years?

They never said the device was worn out. The battery is and can be easily replaced.

All batteries degrade when you subject them to 1000 full recharge cycles.

The device is fine but the battery is worn out after some 1000 full discharge/recharge cycles.
