I suspect it’s a difference between the sell-by date (AKA shelf life) and the expiration date—most contraceptives would be expected to be good for at least a few years after purchase.
Yeah I imagine 30 years from now you can take one of those copper IUD’s sterilize it in case the packaging was the issue and use it. I doubt the plastic/copper is going bad. It has to be the pills that may not be guaranteed for effectiveness after a certain date
