Why does nobody talk about how baking soda loses its punch over time?

I only figured this out after three flat loaves in a row and a frustrated call to my aunt, who laughed and said 'that box is older than my youngest kid.' Has anyone else had a recipe go sideways just because the leavener was stale?

Is it possible your oven temp or measuring was off instead of the baking soda?
