It happens that way in some places but not everywhere. I believe someone earlier mentioned how this whole discussion is security theater - some companies know this to be true and have fiscal policies that reflect that. I have direct experience working for a large organization where 3-5 years was more a guideline than a rule. Please be aware of that, is all I am asking here. 7 years is common and some assets I saw in use for well over 10. Hardware security is a factor but by no means the overriding one.
