"Nope. Government control is the driving force here"
You realize of course, that it is the Government that forces automobile manufactureres to produce a 10-year supply of spare parts (including engine parts) for cars that are produced.

That old urban legend is a lie. They only have to supply parts for warranty work. And those do not actually need to be a direct replacement, only equivalent function.
In the case of software, they can even degrade car performance, so upgraded software doesn’t even need to be equivalent.

As I said, government control is the driving force here. This not a natural evolution like steam to diesel was.
