And you should do whatever helps you feel better, of course.

Perhaps if you weren't mistreating your electronics, they wouldn't be
"garbage" to throw into the trash. In general, I've found if you keep
your expensive electronics in good condition, you can significantly
offset the cost of new/replacement kit when the time comes rather than
throwing all of it away for zero gain, which seems rather foolish to me.
