This would need to be paired with regulations regarding the quality of third party replacement parts, otherwise we’ll end up with a lot of near-ewaste quality parts flooding into the market and tripping up consumers who don’t know any better or simply don’t care (“why buy the $75 high quality part when there’s this $15 shoddy alternative on Amazon?”).
