Lead is an abrasive. New car engines wear less than old "leaded" ones.

Proof?
Conventional aircraft engines burn 100 octane leaded gas. Their TBO after, 60 years is the same. Why? They burn the same leaded abrasive fuel.

I guess if all the jetliners skipped the airports and landed on deserted country roads that would make you happy?
