I agree with pretty much all of that. I do find pretty much all hardware silly robust. Some of the things I've seen these things survive is amazing. Some of the MacBook connectors are silly. Bad idea on the PS jack being magnetized. Paper clips and other crap gets in there. All metal that can cause a short. Laptop mnitor inverters are no fun to replace no matter who makes it. There is a great used Mac parts place whose name escapes me. Great prices and service.

Huh? Really? Maybe you weren't aware of the innovation and idea behind the magnetic power connector on the MacBook Pro laptops. The point of having that mag connector was so it would easily yank out in case someone tripped over the power cord saving the laptop from dropping to the floor.
Unless you use that mag connector to clean up a shop floor, it serves it's purpose extremely well.
Unfortunately, Apple had to drop that innovation when they adopted the industry standard USB-C connector in it's latest laptops. We will no longer have the safety benefit of the magnetic power connector.
Sorry. I disagree. Ive picked metal out of four over the years. Staples and othwer bits can easily find their way in. I never saw a coaxial power jack not come out when a laptop fell. Maybe its my experience repairing that you probably dont have thatbrings me here. Regardless, no mas. They are gone.
