I am not talking about 2 in 1 hybrids, were all the important parts are behind the screen already.
For example if you broke your screen, you can just detach it, buy a new one, fix it with some screws and plug it in, like a standard monitor for pc. It considered undesirable by the public, and companies think people won’t buy it? Or is it a way get more profit from repairs/having to buy a whole new device in some cases? Or it is somehow simple more cost-efficient?

>like a standard monitor for pc
There isn’t a standard model monitor, there’s a standard for *connecting* a monitor to the PC.
The biggest reason a laptop monitor dies is because it’s part of a laptop. The hinges (not a part of a normal monitor) break and the connector cables ran through the moving hinge break. There’s also the fact that there’s a dc to ac converter in the laptop which on a normal monitor isn’t there at all, is part of the power cable, or not near any moving parts.
Combine that with the fact their custom designing each “monitor” (the LCD panels are fairly standard) as well as designing the rest of the internals to be slim/light/portable and you end up with a system where you need to take out 5 parts to replace one.
