Once upon a time a UK model train manufacturer had a warning inside the box of your new loco or rolling stock that said something like "Do not dismantle out of idle curiosity".

Some people despite the warnings and consequences can't help themselves :)

What a clever way to make more sales.

1) people are dismantling goods, then ringing for advice but being embarrassed they broke it, then rebuying when we refuse advice,

2) tell people not to dismantle it, they'll get curious and do the opposite,

3) ...

4) pro-fit!
