Wooooow this is a new low, even for Apple
It's really just par for the course with Apple. They've been making their products hostile to repair for years. One of the more egregious examples being the iPhone 4. The cable that connected the display to the mainboard was strung between the two so that when the phone was opened, any inexperienced user or repair-person would likely tear it in half. To say nothing of error 53, an error that came up when attempting to replace the home button with a non-official part, despite not selling official parts.
I dunno man.
These are the guys who put a net around their building in China to stop people from jumping out of the window.
It's low, but definitely not a new low.
Tbh its to be expected.
