Isn't that the thing? Now that PCs are kinda mature, no one has spare

ago, my "spare parts" were in the form of classic PCI cards! I.e.,
completely useless for a motherboard with only PCI Express slots. Had
some old RAM sitting around too, probably DDR2, also useless for a DDR3
motherboard.
Welcome to the world of future proof which is anything but. When I do my big refreshes I just know that it will be MB + RAM + CPU. Also probably the GPU as that still tends to be that thing that drives when I do an upgrade. PSU, generally ok. Storage that should be ok, at least for the moment as I don't see SATA going away anytime soon.
I think you mean planned obsolesce.
Also NVMe replacing SATA especially on laptops.
