This is really self serving nonsense. Of course its going to be harder to repair a computer that is made up of fewer and fewer discrete parts - the batteries bonded to the case means that the case itself is the battery and should be considered the minimal replacement part. When my volvo died on the freeway, the "fix" was to replace the engine control unit, not some part of that computer. This would be like complaining that just because you could replace the MMU on a Mac II in 1988, apple screwed you over by using a 68030 with on board MMU.
