Think this is more of a pipe-dream though, considering that 10 years is a long time for PC interfaces and internal interconnects. Swapping between different laptop manufacturers will be unlikely to happen, I feel.
Framework allowing for the whole mainboard to be replaced seems like a good halfway meeting point, and each case size being a constant chassis that hopefully will be supported for a long while.
Hope that other manufacturers follow suit, and at least have their own lines of upgradable laptops.
I honestly thought that USB 3.0 wouldn't be such a big deal over a decade later, but we're still using USB 2.0 too frequently.
I believe that USB4, even the 20gbps variety will be fairly prevalent in 10 years.
