For the film cameras, I think about it differently. You can certainly feel like you're parking money in the value of an M4. You take care of it, and you'll get it back. The digital Ms will eventually just become unusable.
I don't think either of these are immutable facts.
The film camera's usability is predicated on the availability of film. That's not a guarantee.
The digital camera's unusability is predicated on the pace of innovation in digital imaging continuing as we've seen it the past twenty years. Also not a given; it's been slowing considerably in recent years. One of the biggest areas of investment - autofocus - doesn't impact the digital M at all.
