Nissan warrants the CVT up to 120k anyway, so popping them at 55k is a minor inconvenience as they give you something to drive while they swap it anyway.

This is partly true. 2003-2010 models have CVTs warrantied to 120k. 2011+ do not.
I never had an issue with my CVT and I drove mine hard, but it did have a mind of it's own. Some days it was very alive and peppy while other days it was very laggy. Do I regret it? Not one bit. However, I probably won't own another CVT vehicle for awhile. It's come a long way but I think it's got a ways to go still.
