Re:Apple’s iPhone 14 Redesign for Repair by ska on Monday September 19, 2022 @01:54PM (#32901616)
No, it's an important distinction. Right to repair is more about a company a) not being legally entitled to punish you for repairing yourself , and b) not making design or manufacturing choices specifically to make it harder (e.g. sealing a component against water ingress may make it harder to repair but is an acceptable trade off, sealing it just to make it hard to repair isn't).

The nature of the device itself may make for difficult repairs, but that's a different issue.
