‘ease to replace’ to whom?
seems like an impossible to define standard, but I’d be interested to hear what the requirements are
if they supply the necessary tools and steps/videos, is that enough?
Given SLaSZT already gave an answer in

Which isn't far from this post
I don't think you asked this in good faith.
A battery that can be popped out and replaced, with no tools and no risk of damaging any of the other hardware on the board.
Just supplying the tools and steps is absolutely not enough. We're talking about replacing a part on a $300+ machine. Most people would be scared to do that purely on the merits they couldn't afford to replace if something went wrong.
True. But this is 10 years old now. Are we going to reduce water resistance over ease of use to repair? Might be. But where so we draw the line?
It's going to be interesting to see the requirements. I'm hoping for somewhere between ease and keeping water resistance up.
