In what way does this make more sence?

A used aircraft would be more likely to have engine problems, unless
it were perfectly maintained, which is improbable. A new engine
should run perfectly for some reasonable time, irrespective of any
maintenance.



The statistics do not beat that out.

disagree.
the analogy is when you buy a car from the dealership, it comes with a
warranty. specifically because it is uncertain whether there were any
problems in manufacture. (and because it helps sell cars). why do you
think hyundai offers 100k of bumper to bumper (i'll give you a hint,
it's not at all because they expect you to never need it)
