"Most components" seems a bit of an understatement when compared with the Framework.

Sure, some components can be replaced. And not at the same cost (opening and manipulating the Framework vs the ThinkPad). But not all, like the motherboard.

I may have built multiple dozens of computers in my life, so it's not that I'm new to this world.

Replacing the motherboard is just not an important thing, and that's demonstrated by how Framework has remained a very niche product.
