On the two MBP that are currently in my home, I have:

  * Changed the RAM (on both)
  * Changed the battery (both)
  * Switched a HDD to a SSD
  * Replaced the touchpad that died
  * Had to do some work on the screen that is slowly dying out
I'm quite happy to do that on computers that are between 6 and 9 years old, it means I can get the most out of them, without paying for a new one each time I need just a little bit more.

I would be completely unable to do that with a newer MBP.
