> What makes the framework repairable isn't board-level schematics, its the modularity and access (similar to a desktop).

That's just wrong. Modularity and repairability are two very different things. They are not interchangeable.

And only 4 other laptops have scored as high as framework for repairability since 2010 - and only 1 other from this decade, none of which were as modular or upgradeable after the fact.

Its an aspirational score. Like that Obama Nobel peace prize https://www.latimes.com/projects/la-na-pol-obama-at-war/ while he was associating people with drones, bystanders included.

"The Framework Laptop repair guides are free and easily accessible" .. if you sign the NDA somehow missing from that sentence.
