For what it's worth I don't think Apple has actually ever done this, and whatever made him believe they do was probably some other oversight during their disassembly/reassembly of the laptop

I'm willing to bet real money that they did.


Please show some evidence - MacBooks are so widespread that it should be very easy to find something backing this up if it were the case.


An oversight is not the case. This is an annoying problem for actual repair technicians, not just a mistake by a beginner.


But it's literally not true. I am typing this from my M1 MacBook with the bottom panel open just to prove this point.
