OK, apologize - because you do have a real problem.

When it would not start, did the starter click, or grunt and stop? Did you measure voltage across the battery terminals DURING the attempt to start, like 10 seconds in?

What voltage were you reading on those mornings? I've seen batteries reading under 11.5 volts that readily could spin an engine and start a vehicle.

Did you clean the connections on the starter itself?

Download the factory service manuals here, might have to download one chapter at a time. Nissan Frontier Factory Service Manuals

On my '98 Frontier, had an intermittent in the electrical part of the ignition switch, lost some batteries until I figured that out. So I had to replace that, was pretty straightforward, just the steering wheel upper and lower covers had to come off.
