Modularity is nice — both for personal preference reasons and incentivizing-market-competition reasons — but it does come at a cost.
The thing is: even in our modular world right now, you don’t really have many choices. Two CPU companies, three GPU companies (two of them being the same as the CPU companies)…
We could someday have a world where PC hardware is technically less modular than it is today but consumers have more choices in the marketplace than they do today.
