This is pretty shameful. It is clearly a cynical move to save face in the right-to-repair debate. If Apple was committed to the environment and repair there would be a "Repair" or "Support & Repair" link in the top header of apple.com that gets you to a store with every major component for recent Apple products. When a product becomes "vintage" they should release all schematics and CAD designs so 3rd party part makers can sell aftermarket replacement parts.
In a year or two Apple will end this minimally visible and confusing website saying not enough people used it (some BS like "less than 0.001% of all iPhone users ever placed an order") and so it is not worth the time and effort. "See? No one cares about repairing their devices. People don't want to own and care for their things anymore!"
