I play with my toys, so a bath is not just an inconvenience but a deal breaker. Not even my NECA have had to go through all that.

Replacing an O-ring on an '80s Joe or lubing a wrist on a 25yo movie Violator is one level, sanding a a hip ball so it *feels* better is another, but bathing your figures just so the knees can move for a few minutes is so far and away that they're no longer toys. It's a poseable statue and in an entirely different category of object.
