Please tell me where I can get a custom mold for a penny. It was just an example.

I dont understand how you dont see it. You can buy X because you might want to Y, but you probably never would, and even if you do, its better hand it over to professionals. You can put "truck/moving furniture" or "phone/change battery", same argument.

Not a realistic example at all.

I see it, it's just not the same argument. The other argument is like this: X costs thousands while Y costs tens. Y is cheaper.

And it's bullshit that moving furniture or changing a battery should be hand over to professionals. It can be a simple task.

Also I don't agree that most people wouldn't change the battery of it was easily replaceable. We'll see in a few years when most phones would have easily replaceable battery due to the EU law.
