Good catch, but the point remains that it’s a simple repair most can be prepared...

> Maybe print the instructions and leave it with capacitor

The UX to make this consumer replaceable looks more like

1. Add a bleed resistor to the capacitor (its default state when unplugged should be discharged)

2. Use a modern consumer grade connector (ie sealed molex or deutsche)

DIY is a worthy approach, but people have to gauge their own limits.

If you really don't want to run the risk of being electrocuted, it might just be worth the 250 dollars to have someone who does this sort of thing all day to come and do the repair.
