Well, I wasn't that person, before, but I am now!
In all honesty, I've seen one agave bloom in person my entire life! It had already died and was making air pups, so don't take my word for it, but these 2 links are rather convincing!
Indepth reading might reveal that many agave have the potential to rejuvenate after a bloom, albeit rare, and in most species, entirely unheard of.
These plants inhabit areas that few dare to go, much less memorize the flora, who's to say how often they die vs regrow after flower!
If an agave blooms and no one is around, does it die...no no that not the cliche...it's a tree falling in the woods...that's right...
