    They could just mandate some less powerful glue behind the batteries and less annoying circuitry behind the screen.

    I’ve tried fixing an iphone and I destroyed it even after watching tons of videos and having all the tools.

    I snagged one of the micro ribbon cabled at the bottom of the screen, and then after that I couldn’t get the old battery out.
