The fanaticism, the demonisation of men, particularly white men, the unwillingness to accept that life is more complicated than Tumblr talking points. If you had no power than that would be fine but you're like political officers in the Soviet armed forces - no one likes you or wants you around but has to be careful around you in case you take offence and decide to upend their lives.
You and others like you have managed a truly impressive feat. You've managed to make yourselves even less popular than Oracle. That takes some doing and you should be rightly proud.
Easy method lol. As opposed to what? It still requires tools and a great deal of care to replace a bloody battery. That is not an advancement over unclip back, remove battery, insert new battery, clip back back on again.
You could do that if your device is supported or you have the ability and knowledge to customise a very complex piece of software. If it's not supported and you don't have the skills then you can always pay someone a lot of money to keep it up to date. Yay freedom. Alternatively the ecosystem could be designed to allow updating in spite of manufacturer / carrier incompetence / greed. Imagine having to be, or have access to, a kernel dev if you wanted the latest version of Debian on your PC.
The price you pay for "freedom" is being constantly vulnerable unless you buy a new flagship phone every year plus having Google spying on you constantly. Both options in the smartphone market are shit but I'll go with the one that's still getting updates after 5 years. There are no Android phones that have that option.
You mean all the things that people noticed straight away and have been talking about and taking the piss out of for years. I doubt anyone will still be talking about or obsessing over TLJ in 40 years.
Luke faces Vader and gets his ass kicked despite some training from Yoda. Rei has no training in anything but can fly the Falcon without any pilot training, manages to escape captivity using the Force and easily beats a well-trained Force user despite never having wielded a lightsaber. But not a Mary Sue oh no.
One of the first steps suggests heating the phone up gently to melt the adhesive on the screen.
This is a ludicrously complex process designed for no other reason than to rip customers off. It doesn't matter if the battery is only secured with adhesive strips if you have to risk breaking the phone to replace it.
See the smart thing would be for regulations to mandate user-servicable batteries, but then we'd be inundated with smartphone fire reports from people being to damn incompetent to replace them properly or getting chinese counterfeits that catch fire after 10 charges.
I don't remember any widespread reports of battery fires when users could easily replace their batteries. The only reason for glued-in batteries is greed.

Why would I bother wading through all that drivel more than once?

The UK Daily Mail, a well-known source of ill-informed and reactionary garbage.
Oh no big words the horror! They don't do fuck all now stop being a dumbass.
Yes mate that's it. The European Regional Development Fund doesn't exist and the poor widdle UK is being oppressed by those nasty foreigners.
Heavily taxed Europeans still manage to afford expensive cars. I've seen quite a few Model S and X about already in the UK.

As Slashdot is unlikely to be fixed, go to Settings -> General -> Keyboards and turn off "Smart" Quotes.
Fuck off

Is there some reason this needs to be asked?

Was fire a big problem before glued in batteries? I seem to remember a phone with glued in batteries having to be completely withdrawn not long ago.
