Yea, that's a good comparison. But odometers aren't magical, they can be turned back. There was a recent scandal/lawsuit where an ex-Ferrari mechanic claimed that Ferrari dealerships were equipped with tools to roll back mileage for their best customers. Example being as the ones who bought Ferrari's elite million dollar cars, so they could drive 10,000 or 20,000 miles and roll them back to 200 miles at sale to sell them "as new". So regulation still requires a way to detect false measurements at the customer level if it becomes too prevalent.
