Not defending Apple for bad design, but this has happened before with displays from different manufacturers. The ribbon cable burning from a tight bend was also what killed my first LG Ultrawide.
The design problem extends beyond manufacturing mistakes and into intentional and user-hostile irreparability. Everyone makes mistakes, only Apple goes out of their way to ensure that you can't fix theirs.
