Whether it be electronics, automobiles or medical equipment, the manufacturers should not be able to horde “oem” parts, render your stuff useless if you repair it with aftermarket parts, or hide schematics of their products.

Basic blender went bad (motor ran but spindle wasn't rotating). I wanted to disassemble to see if it could be repaired. Three of the four screws were Phillips head. I had to cut the casing open in order to discover why I couldn't unscrew the fourth. It was a slotted spanner.
Phone camera; $30 digital microscope; $30 Endoscope. There are just so many better ways available to look down a hole to see what's at the bottom than to tear apart the space around it.
Spanner bits are available in sets starting as little as $7. They are anything but "non-standard".
