Also, I marvel at how watered down the term "bricked" has become. From 'my thing shows absolutely no signs of life' to 'my thing is a little bit laggy'.

I actually measured them and that's the average time it took for all apps to load after I updated to iOS 11 (Before iOS11 it loaded immediately).
If you can sympathize with me because you have more recent phones, please try to close your eyes and count to ten and imagine, hopefully that may give you an idea of how frustrating it is for peasants like us.
That experience made me never again buy a cheap phone. I now aim for the high-end, and can live for 2-3 years in relative comfort (though even expensive phones slow down quite visibly over time).
My iPhone 6 took 10 seconds to load apps, but after a battery replacement it takes me about 4 seconds. Also, I noticed that apps stay in memory longer which means that I don’t have to do a fresh app load that takes 4 seconds.
when i say it takes 10 seconds i mean the screen is blank white for 10 seconds.
I think it's not as ridiculous as 10 secs but 4 seconds of blank white screen is not so much better...
