For the vast majority of even techie people - repairable means swapping out a modular part, not soldering or replacing chips on the mainboard.

  Louis has dozens upon dozens of videos where he fixes macbooks doing component-level repair. The schematics he uses are available and you could perform the same repairs if you have an hot air pen.

    You say that as though the skills required are trivially obtainable. YouTube tends to make everything look a bit easier than it really is…

      To be fair, this type of repair is nowhere near as difficult as most people assume it is.

      You should try it sometime, component repair is not that hard even with average tools. I stuck a phantom powered aux jack in my laptop once, finding the faulty amp transistor and replacing it took about 20 minutes, and that was without schematics.
