Pardon my cynicism, but you may have answered the question.

I suspect it is really hard to keep the big-money clients happy while still
doing good science.

Once one tries to deal with all the potential oxidizers in the air and other
variables the problems may become almost insurmountable.

A "display life" representation has always seemed a bit shaky to me.  "200
years of display life (in a vacuum by candle light...)" probably doesn't
make the best ad copy.

(I think I am now noticing dark-storage warming and fading of my test
strips -- which are not kept in a vacuum.)
