Just so I understand - you're saying get a used CVT, have someone go
into it and look for common faults and repair as needed before
installing. Right?
Interesting option - I might raise that with the shop that would install
a used unit. My thought now, though, would be to try to narrow the gap
between a used and a factory reman and the used CVT. The concerns that I
have with the approach you are suggesting would be that it would add to
the cost of a used unit and also could create warranty issues. Who would
offer a warranty on the CVT - the original parts seller or the person
who checks and repairs it? But this approach does address the worries
I'd have with a used unit.

Subara has dropped the ball with its CVT and faults are pretty much guaranteed.
Mostly, they are minor but require major surgery for rectification. A cheap
replacement allows you to go inside and check, fix or pre-emptively deal with
those and you can then install and wave bye-bye. Which is what I would be
doing.
