What is the life of a Q3?

I realise we don’t exactly know this yet. 
 

I’m asking as my biggest reason these days for not owning a pair of Q3 cameras is this:

 How long do they live and how long will they be repairable?

 Presently I have an M11-P, 28 Summilux, 50 Apo and LLL 35 Eight Element. 
 

My two preferred FLs are 35 and 50. 
 

If the M died, I can continue to use the lenses on another one or on an SL. 
 

If I sold all that and replaced it with, say, a Q3M and a Q3 43 will they be repairable and usable for, say, 20 years?

I ask because when they eventually die and are BER, all I have is a couple of unusually designed paperweights! 🤣

 

 Of course we can’t know for sure what will happen (my phone might include the ability to produce images of 100MP that beat a Hasselblad by then) but I’m sure more than a few here have considered something similar.
