your old cables should be thoroughly cooked by definition

Most think that's the case, but it isn't so, and the case has been disproved thousands of times by a myriad of Cooker users. The relatively weak system signal does not thoroughly condition the cables, regardless of the number of hours used. Signal amplitude and duration are only two of the factors related to the proper conditioning of cables.

if they have been connected to your gear for more than 1000 hours

1000 hours? How and where did you come up with this number? Why not say 10,000 hours? It's still irrelevant.

the cooker just reduces the time the inital burn takes!

In practice, beyond the initial conditioning, all cables retrograde in performance over time, requiring a "recharge", which takes less time than the initial conditioning. This, too, has been proven over and over again. Cables do not maintain stasis, and this recharge is necessary to maintain high performance on a long-term basis. The qualitative results are another matter....it's not just a time factor.

I'll leave it to Luminator or another Cooker owner to comment further.
