old tires vs new tires

[L78M22Rag]

I'm not agreeing or disagreeing, but doesn't that argument sort of apply to the entire car? The car itself is old, and just about any wear and tear or maintenance items can fail if not kept up. There are also rules/laws regarding inspections of these cars which already include inspecting the tires along with the rest of the car. If tires are generally unsafe after a certain age, I think that should be mandate for the appropriate inspection facilities not to pass the car's inspection?
