Right now I can unlink and mix cars from other links in an hour or two.

I certainly applaud what appears to be a new found appreciation for availability. How often does this occur in practice - sending out a link set that has a car out of sequence? Swapping number plates doesn't count:-)

Articulated cars are far more difficult to do this with.

Any articulated cars should to be designed to achieve comparable availability with single unit cars. This is not a theoretical impossibility.
