Seems Apple managed to eliminate a major source of defects by removing the DIMM connectors from the MacBooks.

Or they couldn't figure out a way to make the slots more reliable (or thinner, I guess), and as a bonus locked in higher memory upgrade prices.

It also reduces the amount of space taken up by the connectors and such, and have a better testing suite without manual assembly, that can give false positives.
