"Should they have to" would've been better than "Should they be able to" unless Mat's suddenly against the very thing he does all the time - taking things apart/changing settings himself.

As someone who believes in tinkering with whatever we like, my mouth sort of dropped open at whether or not we should be able to. The day we can't is the day I will smash the very items that keep me from doing so with a sledgehammer.

This post reeks of hypocrisy and inaccuracy - or at least a total lack of editing.
