No it's a terrible deal for the end users which is why manufacturers are pushing hard as are iFixit. Manufacturers want to ship a 1 year warranty on stuff and then kick it over the fence to the end user to fix. iFixit etc want to maintain a repair business and culture. The majority of goods on the market have zero support and are considered disposable. That needs to end. Better consumer protection law and mandatory warranties on devices should be the goal. Repair should be end of life extension only and routine maintenance (consumables like batteries). Repair should be an exceptional situation on consumer electronics, not normalised! And it should apply to crap like kids toys as well.
