Question:

why is the life of copper pipes 50 yrs? what happens after that?

they say that copper pipes never rust, they say that copper pipes don‘t get the mineral build up that you see in iron pipes, so then why is the life expectancy for my copper pipes 50 yrs. what will happen after those fifty years. when comes time to change out my pipes (however long that may be) what would be the most common reason?i don‘t want to debate about whether the life is 50 yrs., this is just what i was told. my main question is what would be the cause of one day having to change/fix my copper pipes.
