What is disingenuous about being a repair parts company that lobbies for devices that are easier to repair? From where I'm standing they are being completely genuine: They profit when people are able to buy repair parts, and they advocate for more repairability in electronics. To me that seems like just good alignment of values.

They have a strong interest in ensuring they're target market is as large as possible. That means cooperating with and occasionally coercing OEMs into playing ball.
