Here I am considering to purchase a newer used Thinkpad than my latest (X1 Carbon G7) and suddenly they release the most repairable laptop of the decade?

Apparently the most recent Mac also has good or at least improved repairability marks. What's behind this? I wasn't under the impression Framework was doing the kind of numbers that would have the big players concerned.

They aren't. I think it's largely the EU's repairability mandates. That or general consumer pressure.
