I don't know for a fact if in isolation this is a problem or not a problem.
But from the perspective of the compound problem of getting repairability on track, this is an element within that compound that is lacking the drive of customer attention.
Given the awful environmental cost of "disposable tech", everyone should care about reducing waste and extending the working life of our hardware if only for that reason.
Of course it's also bad for society that we have so little effective competition in tech markets now that users think substandard products and user-hostile behaviours are normal. The race to the bottom is bad for everyone, and everyone being sold those products is being abused in the name of profit, whether or not any given individual is aware of how much it is happening to them or understands that better alternatives exist.
