They’re recommended because of historical compatibility, not repairability. Also, it was because of the older thinkpads that were excellent with linux and built like tanks that gave them that reputation. Lastly, as another comment in this thread quoted, the failing score was because they were missing a french repairability index thingy, whatever that is, so not exactly a “technical” issue.
