But politicians will actually be prepared to get behind right to repair. But they regard games as a bit infantile, and don’t really want to be involved. A point that was made right at the start of all of this and was then completely ignored.

that’s an assumption. for all we know they would have connected the two, or seen one as harmless and implemented it, or lobbied against both.

People are already talking about to right to repair, so why not take advantage of that, why make life more difficult for yourself than it needs to be?
