When you treat them well enough, they will maintain their performance.

Kind regards, Wim
Gear: Canon EOS R with 3 primes and 2 zooms, 4 EF-R adapters, Canon EOS 5 (analog), 9 Canon EF primes, a lone Canon EF zoom, 2 extenders, 2 converters, tubes; Olympus OM-D 1 Mk II & Pen F with 12 primes, 6 zooms, and 3 Metabones EF-MFT adapters ....

Yep, my experience, too. The especially mechanical wear you can sometimes find on under-engineered lenses is mostly affecting moving parts for zoom and focus, but not the alignment of elements... unless, of course, we're talking about cheap and flimsy optical stabilization elements Wink But for those, the risk is higher that they're misaligned brand-new already.
