    I will assume that your example is the reason for your your comment, and while I agree this does open the door for exclusion, that is after all a reasonable one.

    You cannot have a consumer device at a reasonable price point, designed to provide water resilience, which also contains an open section to the power supply.

      You certainly can. Look up any flagship smartphone and you can see that they provide water resilience and they have a charging port.

        They are all closed cover designs though.

        I am not saying it cannot be done. I’m saying that most of us are not walking around with $2000 phones, nor do we want to.

        As a consumer I want a choice, not a mandate. I am more interested in getting an affordable phone myself then whether or not I can opening it up easily.

        But if you want a phone that can do that I believe you have the right to that.
