I'm not convinced this always happens...

For example, I'll bet a percentage of parts go onto somebody's spare parts shelf. Others are part of somebody's good intentions but never actually get installed because they lost interest. Others don't fit so they are set aside. There are lots of reasons parts don't go back onto cars. They end up in unlabeled boxes up in the rafters and years later are thrown out with the spring cleaning by other people who don't know their value. One way or another, the laws of entropy prevail.
