Update: A client's comment about my climbing line made me rethink my gear check

I was finishing a removal in Boulder last week, and the homeowner pointed at my rope and said, 'That looks pretty fuzzy, is it still safe?' I told him I inspect it, but honestly, I'd gotten used to the look. I checked my log and realized that line has seen over 300 working hours. Now I'm ordering a new one this weekend. How often do you guys actually retire your primary climbing lines?

What finally made you decide to replace yours?
