If I fuck up some plumbing in an appliance things are going to get wet, near whatever electrics are used to drive it.
There is a non zero chance someone might get electrocuted if I’m not inclined to be handy and attempt to fix things just with available service manuals and YouTube videos.
Here I’m only really speaking to incentive, when you start disassembly often the first thing you’re met with are warnings. Likewise speaking to friends and family members etc
People should try, yes.
But, you stake the cost of parts against your ability, repairs take time, being cautious takes time.
When someone hasnt already started repairing your shit these are the things that disincline people from starting.
I think there’s a risk element too
