It’s now been 4 years and 3 months since the last rate cut in November 2020.

The last time we went that long without a rate cut was the 6 years and 9 months form Dec 2001 to Sept 2008, during which time we were in the middle of a major 1 in a hundred year mining boom. Are we in the middle of such a boom now? No. No we are not.
