It seems a bit weird to say that he wasn't replying to the comment he replied to.

... What?

Your screenshot has the founder saying it's reparable. It also has him telling someone with unreasonable expectations that they would be disappointed.

If you literally take his comment out of context you can construe it as him saying they didn't consider repairability or lifetime. But why wouldn't you look at the context that's right there?
