Personally, I am all in favour of repairability if for no other
reason than it saves energy and resources across the board.

Its a tiny part of world energy consumption.

Do you have figures or reference to show that this endless manufacture
and replace with new process is a tiny part of world energy consumption?

Dont need them. Even the most superficial analysis of the
energy use of a household will show that the energy use for
heating, cooling, transport etc leaves the energy use for the
manufacture of domestic appliance replacement for dead.

I'd just assumed it was a major energy consumer.

More fool you.
