How does ifixit justify a 7 out of 10 score? Is the Framework laptop on that same scale?
Cause the only difference to repair-ability from the last model seems like the removable SSD, which is proprietary and the make it very difficult to replicate because all the firmware related functions are on the removable SSD.

CMOS battery is also very easily replaceable.

By "replicate" do you mean creating a compatible third-party replacement hardware module, or copying all the data onto a different card?
Cloning an SSD's data is something we should stop expecting to be straightforward in a world with self-encrypting drives. Restoring from backup is the right approach.

I don't know why you're being downvoted: didn't we stop being able to clone a drive with Windows on it about 20 years ago unless perhaps Windows was installed in a non-standard way?
More precisely you can clone a drive with Windows on it of course, but you will not be unable to boot the clone.

Why shouldn't I be able to clone an SSD? lol
