I could conceive of a designer that would do that (solder things to the
motherboard) to increase the likelihood of planned obsolescence in a
device. But, this is only if the parts that are being used are actually
designed that way: and thus cheaply built machines have a higher rate
of obsolescence... Hence my hesitation.

Thank you for your feedback!
