Very interesting. An acquaintence was describing something similar - a frustratingly high rate of early failures across various bulb types usually meant to last 10-15 years. I have exclusively IKEA smart bulbs where the right fitment is available, plus a motley array of other bulbs and LED lamps (often cheapish Chinese brands resold on Amazon) where IKEA doesn't offer something suitable, and I've not had a single failure in ~5 years. Such a disparity is difficult to explain.
