Here's an example of a modular (open source) laptop already in production, you can see the modular parts in the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIQOJRLVdQY

Also good luck ever getting Apple to do something like this towards improving repairability and reducing e waste

Does Apple generate a lot of ewaste? Their products generally have a very long lifetime. Shit, they have an iPad model that was released from 2015 that still gets software updates.

And? Just because they switched to USB C doesn't mean you need to immediately throw out every single lightning device and cable.
