No need for that in future: iPhone 8 will be one single superglued part.

So they say that the iPhone 7 has a 1/10 repairability score and basically you can't repair it.

How can they sell a $10 ratchet for $20?

Hypocrites.
The same way Apple charges $1,000+ for $200 pig schlock.

Wish they would include more spudgers, I've always found those things to barely last past one or two uses.
May I suggest Fender 346 picks? Cheap as chips. You can also "daisy chain" multiple ones around the screen to keep the leverage. (I think the correct word is purchase not leverage.)
