I think that it has the possibility to make the devices more repairable if they can be put into the right hands. In the listing it says that the large mystery boxes are coming with mainboards that may not be fully functional. Even if they aren’t functional that is a board that has donor components to fix boards that do break over time. I am not skilled in diagnosing board-level repairs or microsoldering but that is a pretty cheap way for the people that need donor boards to do repairs to get them.
