"Mech hangers are a wear and tear item and as such, will need to be replaced from time to time."
Since when?!
Since alloy frames with replaceable mech hangers, usefully individually sculpted for every single manufacturer and model.
A bit like the agreed standardisation of all bottom brackets, with no planned obsolescence whatsoever....
Since whenever who wrote that bullshit came up with it. Replaceable hangers are a sacrificial item, but correctly designed, installed and used they should last as long as the frame as long as you don't whack them.
