I don’t know what that includes, but I’d like expect the EU wouldn’t like it if it requires a lot of special tools.

Don’t be silly. You almost make it sound like the EU is a big evil monster. I honestly don’t see a push to make batteries easier to replace a bad thing. I also don’t think it would be hard for Apple to design their products with that feature in mind. Well, perhaps the AirPods, but certainly not the iPhone and if anyone have the skills to do it and the money too…I’d say it’s Apple. Apple of course don’t like to be restricted, they want to keep tight control over everything.
It does apply to all devices as far as I understand, this isn’t Apple specific at all.
Will take years before we get rid of Lightning here. The wife have an iPhone 13 mini and she’ll likely keep that until it dies.
I also don’t understand how anyone can be offended by this. Keeping YT running no doubt is quite expensive.
You're requesting something impossible for me, making it irrelevant. I also don’t make any claims about thinness. I’m just saying I think Apple with all their amazing engineers would be able to solve it.
I don’t know whether this requirement is generally relevant for most users, it might not be, but I think we should strive for devices that are as easy as possible to repair to give them a longer life. An iPhone have immensely capable hardware these days - the other bit is of course software support.
