That is what I thought. And then I tried to replace the swollen battery on my old Surface Book 1. It's already garbage, might as well try to replace the screen and battery, right? One punctured lithium ion battery later, I think that's about the extent of my 'trying to fix things' adventure.
I'm very pro-repair and DIY and keeping things out of landfills, but at a certain point, the skills/mastery needed outweigh any benefits of trying to DIY/learn/etc. Sometimes it really is best left to the experts (or not at all, as in the case of the Surface Book).
