Even assuming that I wasn't put off by having a subscription for a physical object, how could it possibly be financially viable for me to do that.

It would be cheaper for me to simply buy a new mouse every 4 or 5 years, and realistically I don't replace my mice that often. It's a mouse they don't really get to be that expensive even if you go for all the optional bells and whistles.

Yeah that's the point at the price point they have in mind it's definitely not viable
