I'd suggest you watch a teardown video. The Neo is absurdly repairable compared to just about anything in its category. It is extremely modular, and uses screws.

Repairability examples:

modular USB ports; battery sans glue; trackpad

Twenty years ago, I worked part-time in a laptop repair facility for a large educational institution; this computer would have been a godsend (e.g. the first MacBooks had hundreds of screws, plastic everywhere).

Most laptops back then were filled with tons of screws.

Keyboard that doesn’t require half the computer to be thrown away to replace it!

That probably bit them HARD during the butterfly days.

Wow screws. Crazy. So the industry standard for many years. But I guess it's Different™ this time.
