    The point is that even those right-to-repair efforts don’t get us to true sustainability. They help to reduce e-waste but are not eliminating it. Even if we were able to make every component repairable or replaceable, eventually whatever it is will become “waste.” Being able to replace the battery is great, but a broken battery is not 100% recyclable. You can make the motherboard replaceable, but what do you do with the old motherboards that users are replacing?
