They still need some rulemaking around this and general right to repair though.

Exactly, to use a bizarre example it illegal to trade onions on the futures market specifically but the bill that law is in has broader language curtailing market manipulation through supply hoarding. If the right to repair gets written up it will set precedent

and general right to repair though.

And right to modify!
