Right to Repair is about enabling owners of devices to get their devices repaired, instead of being stuck with the choice of throwing it away and buying a new one. If the manufacturers set the price of spare parts so unreasonably high that repairing is more expensive than buying a new one, then in practice people are still stuck with the choice of throwing it away and buying a new one. I personally had an experience with a device that costed $300 and would often go on sale for as low as $100. It depended on a cable that broke after a few years. They did sell replacement cables on a difficult-to-navigate website that only ships to US(?), except it costed over $100. It's just a bundle of wires with a proprietary connector on one end. Was my right to repair guaranteed? Sure, I could've bought a cable allegedly worth as much as the device. Even if the cable was not sold, I just as well could've hired someone to reverse engineer the connector and assemble a new cable. I fail to see how right to repair is guaranteed in a reasonable manner though.
