EDIT: As an aside, the argument that buying a new car is waste always annoyed me. Maybe if I crushed my old car, but how does changing owners shorten the useable life of a car?

Ditto for smartphones. So what if I upgrade every year, when the device I had 5 years ago is still being used by someone else and is fine for their needs?

What's the person who buys your car doing with their old car? Presumably either crushing it or selling it on to someone with an even older car. If we assume a constant number of drivers (for simplicity) then every new car bought ultimately corresponds to one car getting disposed of.
