YES. Like a needle exchange.
It makes huge sense because of the pandemic (need for fq_codel), and because
of the national security risk of these old devices.
Ideally, it would take any router at all, and would properly dispose of those
devices which are deemed way too old. (If there were 1000s of some
unsupported model, then maybe someone would start hacking...)
