alt Hacker NewsApple may not design for repairability, but what you are saying is not true. I have personally purchased and installed genuine replacement displays on MacBooks with no involvement from Apple.
Apple publishes repair guides for this (e.g., https://support.apple.com/en-us/120768) as does iFixit. Genuine parts are available for purchase and tools are available to rent by individuals (see https://support.apple.com/self-service-repair, which specifically mentions display replacement). Skill and patience are required; replacement by Apple is not.

Which year?? It used to be like that, no anymore.
It is public knowledge that Apple has locked its hardware via firmware. It must be performed by authorised only. You can check YT, that guy in the USA that defends the "right to repair" movement, etc.
