I got two GFCI's in an outbuilding that are about two years old and have already failed that I'm going to replace.

When you say replace I hope you mean with another GFCI.

If you replace them with standard outlets you will be liable for any accidents that may happen.

The reason this rule went is was because people have been killed by defective commercial kitchen equipment.

I doubt the CMP cares about some spoiled food, one reason for the tripping may be defective equipment that should be repaired or replaced.
