>They advocate for thicker less secure products so that their margins increase if they win my business.

They advocate with me (a customer) for a more repairable product. Just like Apple advocate with you for a less repairable product.

They are also the trillion dollars company against a billion dollars industry... seems like you are with the one expert in increasing margins.

> It's simply not true that the devices are not repairable, the issue is that repairing is low margin business.

No one's arguing that they aren't repairable, we are arguing that they makes them harder to repair. Why do your comment keep being that dishonest.

Sure, you are also entitled for an opinion! We simply have different expectations and that’s O.K.

And as for repairability, it’s subjective. I have a soldering iron and my dexterity is not bad at all, therefore many things deemed hard to repair by some are easy for me. I bet there are people who are much better than me and have better equipment, so let’s not pretend that there’s an universal repairability score or something like that.

I wasn't arguing about your opinion on repairability, I was arguing about you stating that ifixit shouldn't defends my case.

> And as for repairability, it’s subjective.

And ifixit does a pretty good job explaining their scoring and show how something is more repairable than others.

> let’s not pretend that there’s an universal repairability score

There's no universal score, but there's definitely things that make repairability easier or harder, tools or no tools.
