I totally agree. My late father-in-law was one of these. During WW2 he worked for Metal Hydrides Inc. on the Manhattan Project. He eventually retired from the Hughes Research Lab in Malibu.
When he and his wife moved to a retirement village, cleaning out his garage was a real eye opener. He was tossing projects he’d been working on for over 40 years into the dumpster. Our son’s high school also inherited a bunch testing equipment and huge glass condensers. There was also a lot of HAZMAT stuff we had to figure out how to deal with. (And no, we couldn't take it to the local HAZMAT disposal facility.
