This car has dents but those don't matter. Full price for you. Car still gets you from a to b just fine. This jacket has some holes and few stains but it will still keep you warm.
A jacket with a hole has massive loss of effectiveness, and I don't receive a new jacket to wear each day.
A car with a dent has significant loss of value, not that it's something I'm terribly concerned with, I run all cars until they die.
That's simply not true. The bruises become rot spots and before getting there they introduce oxidation which affects taste. The shelf life is then also diminished not only for the bruised apple, but for any that are nearby.
Relatively speaking, I think the bruise on an apple is actually a measurably greater decrease in (relative) value than the dents in a car.
