True, but the real test is to pull them and check how they look. And each plug should be marked so you know which cylinder it came from [so you can track any problems back]. A Google search will produce more than enough info on how to interpret the plug wear and deposits.

but isn't that once you pull them out you can't put them back in (easy) coz' of the crush washer?
Gads, I did not think of that. I always put new plugs/parts in rather than re-use because I like to try different products. I'll defer the re-install question to someone that actually knows.

well i dunno too, i only heard that from the tech. he said the point of the crush washer is that you crush it and you know it's in good position already.
if you take them out now and put it back it, it's doable, but that means you will have to be very careful how much tq you put in.
