      Oooooh, that’s a neat idea in light of the current EU legislation concerning the Right to Repair: Introduce a mandatory, highly visible, and standardized seal that all electronic devices have to display on the front of their box:

      Repairable

      or

      Disposable

          Do the same thing with phones that have non-replaceable batteries, too.

          It’d be more fitting to mandate every product to include its ecological price. Disposable vapes, for example, would disappear instantly.
