That's the whole point of the laptop! You can fix the issue yourself without having to file an RMA, ship it back and buy a whole new laptop. If that doesn't appeal to you and you'd rather buy a whole new laptop because the hinge has a slight wobble then you were never the target audience for this product.

This is entirely the wrong attitude to have here - _everyone_ is the target audience for the laptop. Fixing it yourself is the option that you have _down the road_ once your laptop has had use, not as a replacement for quality control!

Surely there's a middle ground, where you can put more RAM in your laptop but it also comes with working hinges.

Yes, if you buy a framework today it should come with the new hinges.
