The only part of this that I find ridiculous is the fact that people keep posting videos where they are shaking their computer.
When did this become normal usage?
During normal usage, my 13" rMBP does not move in that manner. I set it on my lap, on the bed in front of me or the table that I'm seated at and then I open it and use it to get work done. My rMBP is not a carnival ride and it doesn't get tossed around, it's a tool and it is used to perform the tasks it was designed to perform.
Sorry but what? It's a laptop, it's portable. It is made to be moved around, carried around wherever you go. You have it in your bag, it shakes, it moves back and forth. That's good for you that you get work done on it, but so do the majority of us, and we depend on it too. So guess what? I don't want something that I use to get work done to be faulty or defective.
Do not attempt to justify that a defect is based on how a user uses their computers. Once you are out of warranty, and something does go wrong, guess who chalks up the cost of the repair bill? You. So I don't believe it is ridiculous to be cautious and worried about something like this.
