> PS: most 20 years old cars are death traps compared to current cars, I’m not sure it’s a good advice to push people to keep using them for that long.

That's very exagerated. 20 years is 2001 (2002 models, really). By then you had really good ABS, modern airbags (not the early 90s type), often good traction control, crash structures. Anything added since it's either mostly unnecessary or just asymptotically incremental.

20 years isn't "that long", the useful lifetime of a car is way more than that.
