The real goal behind this anti-repair feature is to prevent users from sourcing parts from elsewhere and using it to repair their device. If Apple decides to support a device for only 5 years, you will no longer be able to repair your device once Apple stops distributing the parts. This anti-repair feature prevents you from using other compatible (non apple) parts on your phone (which, by the way are often much cheaper than Apple's artificially inflated prices to force you to buy Apple care).
