Don't be mean. I promise to do my best to judge that fairly.
A laptop you can take apart and put back together and it’ll be fine. You take apart a phone and put it back together and it’s like haunted now. You can’t get it wet anymore, and it rattles sometimes. It says it doesn’t like its new screen, so it’s not gonna let you unlock it with your face anymore. It doesn’t trust you since you took it apart. The buttons feel different now. They still work, but they feel… different.
You just don’t know how to do it right!

It was a joke, relax.
(This too.)
Most laptops these days are not that far away from the glued together phones. It used for be you could swap out a hard drive or RAM in a laptop no problem, I even had a macbook way back that you could do it with like one screw. These days I won't touch other people's laptops anymore (I'm lucky enough to have a framework where I can, and have, upgraded it).
