What you describe is why I don’t think electronics should be in implants. “Dumb” implants already have issues; adding electronics will only increase the issues.

You can't hold complex electronics to the same lifespan as a wrench, or replacement hip, no matter how well built they are.

Exactly why it’s not going in my body.
