No one (at LN) wants to set an expectation that ANY ball bearing will last forever, so from day one the components have had a service life, in years, and miles.
Yes, even if you put 500 miles on a bearing it can have too much time in service if it reaches the recommended service interval. Corrosive wear is real.

Thanks for your reply.
Yep I agree, prevention is better than cure, and you cant expect something that works so hard to last forever. Surprisingly,Porsche did!
