This is really neat product design—the antithesis of most post-2010 "no user-serviceable parts inside" design.

Have you ever looked at Framework Devices?
That is a complete other world compared to other notebook manufacturers. And yes you get spare parts, you can even upgrade a lot of models and you need only some tools because of clever engineering. For most things components inside the machine are labeled with hints how to change or disassemble.
And the price tag is absolutely comparable to other devices
Compare these two:

Yes, from a distance. I haven't ever cared about MacBooks, though. I've replaced a broken keyboard on a Lenovo laptop, cleaned internal fans of various brands, upgraded harddisks, added RAM, replaced batteries. But in general, these laptops became obsolete, not broken, after a lot of years.
I never needed to replace a laptop mainboard, so I don't really care about these specific iFixit instructions. But in passing I note that there isn't much difference to

Couldn't upgrade the SSD of an old Zenbook, because it uses an uncommon connector. So like some other old laptops, it's used just as a frozen programming environment from the past that I perhaps might want to use again, someday.
I still have two ASUS Eee PC sitting on the shelf, in perfectly working condition. I might use these as a display for tinkering with microcontrollers again, or something. But frankly, there isn't much real work you'd like to do with obsolete devices like those.
In short, outside of flat MacBooks or devices that try to imitate a design of lockin, many laptops are built in a way that allows easy upgrades and easy repairs of exposed parts - as long as you know what you are doing. Exceptions to that rule are the problem, not overengineered repairability.
Personally, I don't like devices that are built as if they were for children - regardless of whether they are cell phones, laptops or bicycles.
