My point is that in a better world, people could fix this kind of thing themselves. Like offer a discount for their trouble and have them or their mechanic aunt come by and fix it.
Oh, I fully agree.
I really want to go back to electronics and appliances being both more robust and more repairable. It's just that the vast majority of the population disagrees with that once they learn that it will make things cost more initially.
