Terme proposé par l'auteur pour remplacer "désuétude fonctionnelle incurable", expression utilisée pour décrire une désuétude qui "touche des éléments de la construction dont le coût de réparation est supérieur à l'accroissement de la valeur prévue." L'expression "désuétude fonctionnelle incurable" est à éviter puisque "incurable" n'a pas le sens de l'anglais "incurable". En français cet adjectif appartient au domaine de la médecine.
