Cheaper, better high-speed connections, lack of upgradability.

a great number of laptops are already doing this. Apple lead the way.

And I bought my last laptop specifically because it didn't pull this crap. I was going to buy a T-series Thinkpad to replace my previous T-series, but the soldered RAM and lack of expansion slot killed that, so I got an E-series instead because it didn't have soldered RAM. I still have it 7 years later.

I'm not buying a laptop with soldered everything unless it's literally the only option.
