yes let's review some criteria for good consumer electronics:

follows industry standards
normal operation does not constantly produce stinky fecal waste
standard procedure for maintenance works (instead of "0.01% chance of violent delirium/seizure")
parts are replaceable and interoperable
repair does not cause bloodshed
source code is known and mostly understandable (not interdependent instructions forming Lovecraftian spaghetti horror)

breaking all of this would result in the worst nightmare of consumer electronics

lucky we don't have to deal with anything that horrifying in the real world
