And, if the "clicky" switch fails in a small flashlight with a "pressed" in installed switch (as contrasted with screwed in installation), do you have a brick?

Yes, of course, mechanical switches can and do fail ... usually unpredictably.
Much more reliable than "clicky" switches, are "twisty" switches, but nothing is fail-proof.
Yes, I figured that but was wondering if anyone actually experienced it. I have not in 8 years of daily use with one flashlight in particular.
... do you have a brick?
I've had both types fail ... mechanicals more often, though.Yup, I've had mechanical clicky failures. Never had an electronic switch fail, though.
