> to enable the repairs performed by authorised repair channels I think what this means is that just want to be required to support the "replace whole part" type repairs that Apple Stores already do - i.e. replace motherboard, replace display assembly, replace whole top case. Compared to enabling the kind of board or component-level repairs that people like Louis Rossmann does which requires access to schematics, individual ribbon cables and specific chips. The former means that one slightly torn 50 cent ribbon cable means a $300 screen replacement, or one blown $1 power controller chip means a $2000 logic board (cpu/ram/flash storage all that is soldered on) a replacement, which is all extremely wasteful both of money and natural resources.
