The more difficult it is to repair something, the less possible it becomes to repair it.
Damn-near anything is possible to repair with the right training and equipment but there is a very wide spectrum between what an average person can do with tools they can easily pick up at any hardware store for cheap and a little common sense and some YouTube videos to guide them, and repairs that require specialist knowledge and equipment.
When something is made more difficult to repair, it slips further into that specialist end of the spectrum, so it's possible for less people.
That's not true.
The tools someone has has nothing to do with difficulty.
Gonna need some elaboration on that last point. You're saying having appropriate tools for the job and the difficulty of the job have no relationship? Are you against right to repair? It seems implicit in your comments.
Typically not having the right tools makes it impossible, not hard.
How the hell do you reach that conclusion? Where's the logic there?
