> the resistors in the terminators and the connectors
> deteriorate due to the effects of heat and air.

Air: The air can't get to the resistor portion of the resistor because
it's in a jacket. Is somebody making exposed resistors?

Heat: I've seen resistors in higher-power situations burn up, but the
power level in these terminator resistors is miniscule so there's no
heat problem. (Not Hot = you can touch it. Hot = you can't touch it.)
I've never seen a resistor "deteriorate" (change value) from room
temperature exposure. These things are stored for years at room
temperature and they don't deteriorate.
