> here's a local support network for the hardware which is decent and doesn't involve me shipping it off to some third party and losing it for 2 weeks.

Small heads up, every serious hardware issue I've had with MacBook Pros involved them being shipped to a third party for a couple weeks. Sure, they might try a thing or two in the Apple Stores, but then it's shipped off. YMMV

They replaced the screen on mine in store. I think it depends on what tier of shop you’re in as some of them don’t have full service ability.

In my case they were massive flagship stores that Chat support suggested I go to with an appointment. Pretty sure it had to do with the complexity of the repair both times.
