I agree and to expand, one does not need to throw away the entire amp (chassis, cables, connectors), but rather throw away the damaged item only (board, amp, power supply) and easily install the new one since the are all plugs and connectors, no soldering involved.
Example: VTV EVAL-1 below.

I think we were riding the same thought wave there...
