I’d say - only your own failure to back up locally.

If you don’t do backups, it’s just a matter of time before you lose data one way or another.

No way. If the device got lost or crushed then it's all user fault. But with the device completely intact, just needing to be charged (you could even swap the battery if you actually wanted to help the customer), lack of backups gets much less than half the blame here.

Totally agree with you, this was my own doing. Though I would have been more than willing to pay extra for data recovery if it were an option.
