Would hope such legislation articulates exactly what parts of a "phone" would need to be made available. There are hundreds of parts in an iPhone. It's unreasonable to expect that Apple or any vendor have the resources to make sure every single part, large and small, is available to 3rd party repair shops.

It is not about making them available. It is about not not making them available. Right now if you email a factory that has the parts they will say they are not allowed to sell them to you for any price even if they have them because Apple/etc said so. It is about removing that gag.
