I would say they are still lucky, my grandpa didn't not even have any of those, they survived on farming, in fact during my grandparents days, they all went by foot to any places. Although my dad after 2006 he bought a bike to go to his office.
But my grand parents really struggled a lot during their day's.
I used to hear stories how my grandparents had only one of these lamps, to survive the dark nights.
Your post just reminded me of my grandma suddenly, she died in 2018 unfortunately 😌.
But memories will last forever 😊
