For now both DIY and prebuild edition (all configurations) are in batch 4 which ships in late Q4 2023.

That definitely seemed the like the most jank part of their production line. You'd hope they come up with a fix for that. I wouldn't be surprised if a significant portion of their sales are DIY, so getting that right has to be pretty important.

DIY or not they still need to test the laptop fully assembled before shipping so I don't see a way around that.
