Can closed ear headphones have more bleed over time? (alien.top)

I've been using a pair of Taotronics Soundsurge 46s for almost 5 years now, and recently there has been more people commenting on the music I'm listening to or other things of that nature a lot, when that almost used to never happen for the first several years I've had them. I almost always listen to about the second or third loudest setting in my phone so I haven't been turning it up over time. I listen to heavy metal and lately a ton of brutal death metal.

Since I've had them for so long and I'm overdue for some new ones, they are literally starting to fall apart and the stitching in the cups has come undone completely. That might be the answer right there idk.

I mean the awnser is definitly yes, open backs start with 100% of their max possible bleed so it can't get any worse, closed backs start with their least possible bleed, so it can only get worse from there
