It surely wasn't why ARC obfuscate the origin of parts and do not provide info on the type of device used
Like I said before you provided JUSTIFICATION for that practice which in the context of the whole thread was irrelevant.
The relevant question is. Does ARC obfuscate/hide the type of parts? You couldn't or wouldn't provide that answer and you don't have to know the answer.
The thread revolved around the issue of erasing the original markings of the components which makes unauthorized repairs difficult/impossible or forces the end user to use factory service or acquire factory supplied parts at prices of several magnitudes higher than the prices of those components in electronic supplier store. I did not have a big problem with this practice in most cases.
Abe had a major issue with it since he is a staunch proponent of the "right to repair"
The Malaysia anecdote was an illustration of potential problems with your justification of ARC practice and your " I just send my amps to Minnesota and that's it:)
