I was trying to point out that if you blow a gasket in a drysuit, then that drysuit no longer functions, so theoretically, the drysuit has lost it's ability to do what it was intended to do which it to keep you dry, but ha sit lost it's usefulness?
Nope, because you can always slap on a new gasket and be good as new, which gets us to this 6 year old dry suit that leaks and has a lifetime warranty for the life of the garment, so if it can be repaired, be it new gaskets, retaping the seams, etc, etc, then that garment isn't dead, and still has a useful life ahead of it, that is after some extensive work, but at what point do you draw the line that determines a garments "useful life", and specifically, where does NRS draw that line?
Do they draw it at 4 gasket replacements, 6 gasket replacements, retaping the seams once, retaping twice? Seriously, where is that line drawn? I can understand a product like a pfd that over time loses it's buoyancy, or a cracked helmet, but what constitutes the end of the road for a drysuit?
Just curious and playing devils advocate
