The biggest reason for sensor life is likely due to the sensor (needle) being attacked by immune cells, inflammation or fibrotic scarring. This type of foreign body reaction causes the amount of glucose available to the sensor to drop and reach a point where it just isn't accurate/sufficient anymore
This likely why the sensor life is advertised as ~12-15 days:
"*Sensor Survival Clarifying Statement: A study was conducted to assess the sensor life where 77.9% of sensors lasted the full 15 days. In other words, when using the product per the package labeling, approximately 20% of sensors may not last for the full 15 days, 10% of these sensors may last less than 12 days."

In this particular example, the iPhone is probably better represented as a Veblen good?

Reminds me so much of Machine Man by Max Barry.
"Charles Neumann is a mechanical engineer working at Better Future, a military research company. After losing one of his legs in a hydraulic clamp, he begins to tinker with leg prosthetics. The replacements he builds are so advanced that he amputates his remaining leg in order to make full use of them."

This sounds like a corollary to the Dunning Kruger Effect!
