Default electrical panel question

my comments about upgrading, with a 35 year old panel you get all new
breakers, they can go bad overtime. plus arc fault breakers for
bedrooms and GFCI kitchens and baths. plus the panel is mazed out. come
time to sell the home all these issues equal less money... let alone
upgrading to code for grounding.

35 years is a long time and electrical use continues to grow
