But of course we all know that the big manufacturers don't do this not because they can't but because they don't want to. Planned obsolescence is still very much the name of the game, despite all the bullshit they spout about sustainability.

I love repairability and all, but it hardly matters if I don't want to use them in the first place because they traded off too much quality for repairability.
