This isn't strictly true.

While traceability and tamper-proofing are prerequisites for preventing right-to-repair, they're also needed for things like maintaining supply-chain-integrity, which is becoming a adjacent, but different concern.

A lot of the things in the article (diamond dust in the coating,s, etc...) are basically just tamper detection, and even then they require someone to visually validate the PCB. I don't really have a problem with that kind of thing.
