yes but... no. if you go half way to do something you will not reap much of the expected benefits. in certain use cases hard thresholds are important to consider. in this case half available schematics is not good enough to do repairs even if its better than no schematics at all.

But half way to something here is demonstrably better. The computer opens with ordinary tools and the parts are modular and available! It was also stated above that this repairer did not ask for the schematics.
