I don't think commercial structures typically keep their cladding beyond 10 years, unless it's a warehouse, so I'd imagine if it's anything other than. A warehouse they'd be happy to just have it reliably last 10 years then whatever from that point forward.

Also depending on who's involved and the business vertical, plus tax and policy structure, there could be a cottage industry around skinning warehouses I'd imagine, even if it needed to be re-skinned ever 10 years, but I agree that anything less than 10 years isn't sturdy enough for many applications beyond super niche.
