Initial rough check of camchain;- just try to lift the chain at the highest point on the cam sprocket as it compares the chain pitch with the tooth pitch. Any more than approximately 1mm and it's worn to excess. Meaning that a new one cannot ordinarily be lifted, 1mm and you'd consider planned replacement, 3 to 4mm definitely finished.
Erny, your finding doesn't surprise me. On the German site camchains are often found not worn.

TBH DR I don't think a lot of chains are worn, it's more to do with economy, whilst the engine is down it's false economy NOT to change the chain.
