Irrespective of what the fuses are made of, they become unreliable after
about 10 years of use. It's the heating/cooling cycle that causes the
fuses to fatigue.
I've seen old European-style fuses where you could actually see the
metal element sagging from this effect.
Typo. Should be Cooper/Bussman, which is Buss Fuses.

I forgot about front wheel bearings. They were replaced (?) less than
10,000 miles ago. I looked at the receipt from the previous owner. He
went to the dealer complaining about an overheating right brake. You
should see the list

Change in metal type would only change the thickness of metal used. I don't
think it really matters what the metal is, so long as it works. New fuses
are better than old ones though, because they get dirty and don't conduct
