And if you have something like the MNT Reform laptop[0] (which is even more to the extreme end of repairability) that those things you mention are even worse. So, there's the rub, and it should be clear: repairability is coming with a trade-off.. Sleekness, performance, battery life. We as consumers would rather have ultra portable, high performance laptops that feel rigid in our hands over bulky devices that could be useful for 1.5x as long (or survive more wear potentially). Framework is banking on people who are aware of this tradeoff and want to buy a device going the opposite direction; which is GREAT!. For example all smartphones are going larger and there's no choice for someone like me to get a small phone these days: I am forced. You're not! Someone is allowing you to make the tradeoff, and instead of understanding that these are actual trade-offs, you'd rather complain that they exist at all.
