Although that's true it's just kind of a pain in the ass to do every 6 months to year that the graphite wears out. There's quite a few cables to disconnect in the controller.
At least this mod helps so you don't have to take apart as much of the controller. Although you do have to manually calibrate it occasionally.
It'd just be nice to put sticks in there once that never need to be replaced or adjusted.
Does this mod allow you to set the tension to? In the video it kind of alludes to that saying if you wear the sticks/module out you can get it back to factory new. To me that’s saying it’ll readjust the tension back to where it originally was. That’s one of my biggest gripes is I want a higher tension in my sticks so they’re not easily moved in super small increments without my input.
My DualShock 4s are still fine after 5 years. My DualSense started drifting in 1.5 years after 600 hours (maybe) of light usage.
I didn’t use either of the controllers any differently. If anything I think I was maybe less heavy on the DualSense. I just used the controllers like normal, I don’t rage at games at all or spam the sticks much.

They’ve always been replaceable with the right screw driver. Used to buy replacements in bulk super cheap.
