alt Hacker NewsYes and given that keyboard replacement is really common repair (probably most common repair on butterfly models but still quite common now), the ease of repair is extremely disproportional. In case of OP's Macbook Pro: the rivets, the number of screws, the need to disassemble everything, even having to lift the glued in battery - all just to get to the keyboard.
I agree that the rivets and glued in battery is an issue that ideally would be dealt with by legislation. Some disassembly is always going to be required and I don't see that as a negative. I see a keyboard replacement as an, on average, once in a device lifespan event.
