I mean, as-is with much lower power lasers, it's written up as a cost of operation. What used to be parts that were installed once and then never touched are now regular maintenance tasks.

I don't think the mirrors and prisms will be the expensive part in the grand scheme of things, but the downtime to shift spots and replace components will be expensive.
