10.000 hours is 416 days.

Not exactly super IMO.

Well given you should sleep at least 1/3 of a day you would still get 600 days out of an abhorred abuse of your time

In terms of the study? Clearly it was long enough to experience quite a bit of failure.

In terms of those 20% of devices? I'm in complete agreement.
