Ok fuck it.

Tell me why i shouldn’t go for this as my next daily driver after one MBP after another for over 15 yrs. I’m serious.

You are doing it wrong. Framework is easy to DIY, use that option and bring your own memory and storage. Only get what you need right now, you can always upgrade later when prices come down. Instead of the included charger, get a high quality third party 65W GAN charger. All that gets the cost down to about 1600 with barely any downside. Don't buy a modular device without using the modularity to your advantage.

This is exactly what I did. I love my framework.

Will it be a legend like Thinkpad in 10years? Probably not. Is it better than 99.99% of unrepairable essentially disposable laptops ? Fucking yes it is.
