I don't expect to keep warranty, it just diminishes any praise you could give for other statements they make like quoted in the OP

We already have this right for things we own, on exactly the same terms, which is it voids warranty.

Except that merely opening something _does not_ void the warranty in the US. It is in fact illegal for a manufacturer to claim that it does! It has been illegal since 1975 and people still believe this crap. Even repairing something does not void the warranty.
