boB, Yeah, that's kind of my take on it. By now, if it was going to show a failure, it would have already done so. I haven't seen a rash of failures showing up in these older units that's simply attributable to age.
(The trick: the very first SWs had ten hex-head cover screws on the back, meaning that to remove the cover for any service, the unit had to come off the wall. Trace soon discontinued that overengineered redundance, and once removed the screws could be left off, as they didn't serve a needed purpose. This unit still has all its screws intact. I'm not sure that I can say the same about myself, or maybe you either...)
