It's super toxic for the planet, and in 99% of the cases useless.
If we reason like that capitalism will push us further into buying and buying because what if.
Car rentals and Airbnbs literally are the answers for both.

Or that are very ineffective. > “You will own nothing and be happy”? Yes, definitely. Suggesting you rent for rare occasions is the same as owning nothing.

I can't count the massive amount of stuff we have at home and don't use at all despite my active pushing against those, literally everybody I know is in the same situation.
