There were TVs made that you could upgrade the processor on, they were more expensive and never took off. People want cheap, they'll forgo the better product if they can get one that's on sale cheap. Consumer choice says that an upgradable product sells worse and the company that makes the upgradeable models will get the lowest market share. You'd have to legislate modularity and then you get people complaining about government over reach.
