Doubtful. It'll be a while until Framework operates at a scale that even makes a blip on Apple's bottom line. Legislation could have a large and immediate impact on Apple.

I think, like most people here, you are overestimating the demand for self-service.

Most people are far too busy these days to be trying to fix their own device.

And as someone who tried to fix a MacBook it requires a level of care, skill and confidence that is a step beyond most people.
