No, actually correct facts are what is accepted and so far you have spouted all kinds of FACTS but you still haven't proven your point, cause and affect. There is a very large difference between the new ICs and the original electronics.

If it wasn't for dinosaur methods of testing your parents would have been walking every where they went because us dinosaurs did quite well with or testing methods long before you learned your way and long after. I can completely dismantle my car into it's smallest parts and rebuild it without opening a book or resorting to overpriced diagnostics machines can you?
