Though I applaud this as a next step in taking back ownership of that which we buy, I do wonder how this will affect keeping phones dust and water tight, like the IP68 rating...

Thats not up to you to decipher. Those companies made those claims. Now they have to back them.

I was talking about devices up until now. You can seal them closed, and you got your watertight devices. How would you get those devices at all if you can't seal them completely?

I'd hate not having a watertight phone, use it in water all the time.
