What many people don't keep in mind is that plants are usually sold in way-too-small plant pots - they usually need to be repotted immediately and can use some fresh soil, optionally fitted with some kind of plant-benefical nutrient.

What you mention is definitely true, but from my experience, a lot of my friends' and acquaintances' plants die because they don't repot them.
