Yeah but you update the mainboard once every 10 years. Usually what you upgrade are: ram, disk and cpu. Comparing a tower with a laptop makes little sense. They don't have the same use cases and compromises at all. It's like saying "I much rather stay on a framework, because all the part are upgradable, but I exchange the bigger price for portability and not having to by a battery to protect against power down". It has little to do with the framework proposition, which is to be a laptop that happens to be easier and cheaper to repair than the competition. I tried to repair my previous laptop. I killed it because the parts are so hard to manipulate. Cost me $2000. I think anything is cheaper than that.
