Ah see this is the critical difference:
‘2) fit aftermarket parts, and the manufacturer is allowed to void your warranty only if they can prove that the part contributed to the fault.’
In the case of electronic products, we don’t assume things that things that look the same, perform the same.
An aftermarket iphone screen for example could even be from literally the same assembly line but perform so poorly that nobody reasonable could expect Apple to uphold their warranty on a phone with it installed. That’s why QC testing exists.
All other differences can be derived from that basis.
