remember that though the time is vastly extended - things can still go bad in the freezer https://foodsguy.com/how-long-fish-last-freezer/

Yep, I am not going to eat that fish. I have a freezer which is too large for my needs, so stuff like that just ends up being left at the bottom as a monument of my apathy.

valid and relatable, I prefer eating fresh so I don't freeze much aside from ice cubes and the occasional bread, and there's this half a package of fish sticks just, in the freezer, probably not good to eat anymore, but taking them out would be more effort than leaving them there

USDA says fish (and pretty much everything else) is "safe" indefinitely if properly frozen. Taste and texture are what the majority of timelines are about. That and your chances of accidentally messing up the freezing with a power outage or improperly shut door goes up over time.
