That's an interesting idea. It would probably be more expensive that just changing the receptacle when it starts to wear, but more convenient in some cases. I don't object to changing worn receptacles. However, my experience is that the only ones I've had to change are the cheapies. Good quality receptacles can take thousands of connection cycles, and still support 16 amps for EV charging. The key is "good quality." Commercial, industrial, or hospital grade is the way to go. If you watch Ebay, often you can get a box lot of these better recepts for little more than what you'd pay for "specification grade" (about one notch above the 50 cent bin stuff) at the Big Orange or Blue Box.
