If they're only replaceable, then eventually nobody's going to buy them. So many people I know won't buy electric vehicles because they're worried about what's going to happen when the battery goes bad.
Individuals think on one scale, organizations think on another. Individuals can't plan for a lot of things, how many people do you know save up to get their tires replaced? I bet not many. But organizations can work that sort of thing into operational plans and pay people to keep up maintenance schedules.
But all of that breaks down when you're talking about long distances. The cost of shipping out a brand new tractor is going to so dwarf any kind of repair that even at the organizational level, the company that farmers pay to provide equipment is going to demand that tractors be serviceable.
