Which is the type of repair bill I don't want. I would like to just source a donor phone and transplant parts to make it work again, aka reducing wastes. (and protecting my bank acc)

However, with a big player like Apple support this defective bill, it got a high chance to pass and set the standard.

I get why they do some of it in the security components, really wish they just gave the user the option to trust after a big warning banner. Yes, someone could have hacked this faceid camera, but since I’m the one putting it in and not some badguy please just associate it with this device now.

I agree. Security components, fine. Just let me skip over that.

However, what on earth they need to serialize the monitor and battery?!?! Calibration? How come I don't need calibration for my PC monitor nor my camera batteries? Does it work to its fullest? No. Does it work. Yes. That all I want.
