Even if I only took, say, four hours, that's a lot of money for my client to pay. I would have instead sent it to www.powerbookmedic.com, whose flat $95 labor fee would be far less than my $60/hour rate. Assuming the computer suffered so much damage all at once, I wonder why one would bother repairing it. It would have been a bottom case and battery at that point...

Let's just say, theoretically of course, I append or retract a single char every time to make life easier... Unfortunately at work they make us change our password every 30 (or is it 60?) days.

It destroyed my ability to type one of my passwords for a long time, because I had to concentrate more to hit the 'j' key, that slowed me down, and broke the timing. I just modified my password muscle memory instead of replacing the 'j' key... Recently the (let’s say, for the sake of example) ‘j’ key on my keyboard broke off.
