> For many, many repairs the Genius bar just tells you that it is not repairable even though it is. A 2000$ device that you just bought a couple of months ago.

If you bought your device a couple of months ago, wouldn't you still be covered by the warranty?

Technically, it’s a limited warranty. So they can deny your claim for certain reasons. One of which is water damage. Not a really good reason; if there’s water damage, replace the other damaged parts also, but it’s what their rule is.
If it's a new Apple product, water damage repair is $99. I just went through this last week.
Limited warranty is not the same as being repairable. Warranty is free, repairs are paid.
Warranty is prepaid, not free.
