Absolutely adore you not leaving any steps out, for people who are still new to dealing with internals it can all be quite literally mystical, and so showing (and editing in other angles) is very alleviating to the usual worries. Easy to imitate you, much less stressful!

As one tech to another I should suggest you add one thing to this sort of video my laptop is a gaming 15 DK and the four screws in the back if you look closely are NOT the same length! so when a user removes screws from a laptop like this, they should lay them out next to the laptop in the same pattern so that the same screw goes back in the same hole... I use a piece of tape that I stick the heads of the screws on so that way they stay where I put them
