yes, and i believe we've already seen them relent a bit with the newer chassis with ports other than USB-C. i honestly doubt Apple will ever go back to user serviceable anything unless they are forced to like tomorrow's suspected USB-C iPhone due to EU legislation. their RAM is now part of the CPU die, so the chances of a user upgrading that are slim and none, and slim just left town. other than the SSD, there's not much left to upgrade. external USB-C SSDs are so cheap and fast now, that i'm much happier plugging in bus powered something instead of upgrading the internal. the internal can stay the OS, apps/docs, and maybe frequently used media, but everything else can stay on externals.
i'm also have been around the sun too many times to fixate on the constant tinkering/upgrading of components. been there, done that, got the experience. now, i just want the damn machine to work. i'm well past getting the hardware, but fighting for days/weeks on getting some niche piece of hardware to work. not begrudging anyone that enjoys that, but i'm well past it.
