I suppose in theory they could replace the battery and then see if that fixed the issue, and if it didn’t then there’s another issue, and then fix that issue, but all that seems like a lot of work.

Takes 5 seconds to probe the battery with a multimeter and see its dead. Those are basic troubleshooting steps that some 10 year olds can do, let alone a professional repair shop

Given the absolutely clueless troubleshooting you suggested in the 2nd paragraph that was not exactly clear

I’m on the opposite extreme, because I don’t see how the cluelessness portrayed in the second paragraph detracts from the sarcasm

Only a Genius could come up with a scheme that offloads the cost of their own laziness to the customer. Exactly the kind of innovation that Steve Jobs stood for.
