No that can be a frugality mindset of not wanting to pay the refinancing closing costs (which can be 5 figures) .. I've seen family make similar sorts of short term savings vs long term savings trade-offs.

It can, but the OC mentioned not refinancing because they thought they'd sell soon, which would mean they wouldn't get the long-term savings.
