I've never had one fail in a different manner. Modern LED bulbs seem to fail differently. I see lots of power delivery issues before they go

Yeah LED bulbs usually have their power supply go long before the LED itself due to inadequate cooling, LEDs themselves last a long, loooong time if properly driven.

That failure mode is more, it works fine when initially turned on, then starts failing/flickering on and off once it has gotten to temperature.
