Just a sidenote that to build stuff that is "also easy to be repaired" is not that easy.
You need another new skilset from designers and mechanical designers to not only make small, beautiful and "easy to build and durable things" but also easy to fix things.
You also need more from the production chain to be able to ship parts and instructions how to change them. And ship them.
Things needs to be recyclable and should be fixable. Just saying, IMHO, that it is harder and I understand why in some stage it's not done.
