yah that was exactly my point. Wear out your clutch is better than wearing out your other tranny components for sure. Cost of labor, cost of parts, time, etc is not comparable.
but check this out man... my coworker did 125k miles on ORIGINAL clutch in his nissan, and 130k on his toyota!! original factory clutch that came with the car. that'd be nice if i can do that
