Apple doesn't provide board-level schematics so that anyone with a good supplier and a steady hand with a soldering iron can fix their motherboard, though. You also can't replace parts nearly as easily, even on older MacBooks. Swappable ports also help, so that if HDMI or displayport get replaced you can change to the new standard.

Accessing the RAM, wifi, and SSD are only 5 screws away, and they give you a screwdriver in the package.

Basically, Framework has provided so much information that you could practically build one from scratch yourself with enough determination and self-loathing.
