Constant thermal cycling of electronics ages parts. I never turn off my systems and have had very, very few failures.

Ditto. I have a surge protector but never turn off my mac-mini. That said, I have a laptop that I turn off when not in use. I’ve seen enough battery failures in older laptops to suggest that I should disconnect it from the power grid when not in use.
