for instance i have coins that i received in 2014 and have not moved them ever since (5 years) that doesn't make them lost...

Maybe 5 years is too short to consider, I did say look at older unmoved coins. In the real world, outside, banks consider accounts inactive as short as 1 year but as long as 10 years.

I think it's good practice, even in bitcoin, to move your old coins to new addresses every few years. A chance to consolidate inputs for lower future fees, as well as to upgrade to new address formats or new wallets.
