Apple did a dumb thing or two with their 20" CRT monitor, the main thing being the hard-wired video cable.
They did a similar thing with the OG HomePod.
The cable is fairly difficult to remove and replace, but it's doable (I haven't tried).
I've read it's not user removable on the new HomePods, I don't know about the miniPods.
Some places do this because it's cheaper than using sockets, etc.
I've come to think it's Apple being Apple beyond 'Apple tax'.
I've got too many CRT's in da house.
A 15" Sony Trinitron display, a 23" (?) La Cie electron III, 12", 25", and 32" Trinitron TVs.
That $50 sign ploy has some merit.
