      It’s the literal definition, yes. But speaking literally, you can do your own electronics in your house, or defuse a bomb, or build a nuclear reactor. You just need access to the parts and instructions… But should you? And if you could, why would you not do it in the simplest way possible?

      Literally speaking, anything is user-doable.

      Literally speaking, everything is being done by someone.

      Claiming apples hardware is efficiently repairable and serviceable, is a fucking joke.

      I have done it, and its a huge pain of adhesives and seals and stress. A sealed panel with screws wouldn’t really have to impact water resistance or thickness or prettiness. Other manufacturers have done it before, and they can do it again.
