Who said I didn't worry about them? :)

If you want to go into paranoia mode, then there is all sorts of special ICs to worry about. Any programable stuff is relatively easy, but what if you don't have that peculiar gain-stage, low-jitter flip-flop or whatever. Then you have a piece of nice old gear that just turned into a doorstop. Until you find another and can make the transplant.

Caring about the gear so you don't kill the unobtainium components as secondary casualty should maybe come as natural.
