Don't get me wrong, it's certainly going to bring a new dimension to restoration, but I don't think it's going to be such a big deal that it will prevent it from being done.
True, solid state electronics are exactly that. SOLID state, meaning no moving parts. They are for the most part very reliable, set it and forget it type of thing. In a perfect universe, that is.

I guess my first question to someone in 50 years would be..

Where are you gonna get a stock ECU for a 2009 135i?

Just playing devils advocate
