Completely Apple's own fault, too. A rating of only 1 on iFixit's "Laptop Repairability Scores":
"The top case assembly, including the keyboard, battery, speakers, and Touch Bar, is glued together—making all those components impractical to replace separately."
Apple was also one of the first companies to solder in the RAM so it couldn’t be upgraded. I miss being able to make my laptop significantly faster without upgrading it completely.
