Also stuff made 15 years ago seems more durable than the stuff from say 5 years ago.

This sounds a lot like survivorship bias. Stuff made 15 years ago that’s still in use today is more durable than stuff from 5 years ago.

There was plenty of junk 15 years ago, too. It’s just all been thrown away by now.
