Watched it last night. I am no apologist for lack of reparability in modern cars, it sucks. However this didnt seem THAT bad to me. About the same as most modern transverse car with the exception of having to remove the axel. Its not ideal for sure but seems like a 2hr job at a shop or a 4 hr driveway job. This is the sort of thing that will drive you nuts if you buy a new alternator and arnt aware the shaft has to come out, fight with it for an hour thinking "surely I don't have to unbolt the knuckle. Pre interneting really helps but its a time sink.

It also lasted 165k miles. Its more forgivable to me than porsche requiring a programmer to change the battery for example.
