Seems like there could be some logical fallacies associated with your postulation. Try your argument with milk.

The warmer it is, the quicker it will break down. It won't become poisonous but it will become less effective over time. There is no way to stop that, but freezer temperatures slow it.

Freezing at -80C. My stash should be good longer than my lifetime.

at -80 you must be using a ultra low temp freezer. I see them online go for 2 - 4K, of course you have used med equipment from Marketplace. Walmart sells a ultra low fridge that's advertised as going -40 for around 300 bucks but I'm not sure if I trust that.

The shipping time is quite short compared to the relative time one would want to store peptides.
