    My point was that although a belt can look fine by the rubber coating, internally, the threads can weaken, or the rubber can seperate without visible cracks, etc...

    I didn't read all 6 pages of a thread asking if an unknown condition timing belt should be changed, I sincerely apologize.

      no apology needed (as sarcastic as it probably was) I am aware that these things age worse than they rack up miles - your point is valid in any case.
