I feel that with time the strings get worn and the thin E and B start to intonate badly.
So I bought a bunch of single E and B strings and change only those.

Many of my gigs are like practice, But.
I've been using Thomastik Bebops 13... and generally use 22-24 on 3rd string for the last 10 or so years... I play too many notes both soloing and comping.... they ware out and intonation goes. If I don't change them every couple of weeks.... I'll blow up a string or two and need to change during breaks. It's generally just the wound strings and obviously only takes a few minutes... but It's just part of the cost of playing.
Disclaimer... I don't like the muffled sound and gets to muddy for my style of playing. But I hear and still love other guitars that sound great with old strings.
