   I refuse to buy any laptop that doesn't have an easily swappable SSD. I don't want to have to open up the case to swap out the SSD.

   Yes, I realize that this requirement limits me to 15-year-old Toughbooks and Getacs.

      What is your use case? Do you have multiple SSDs with different OSes?

         Yes, I want to do dual boot (well, multi-boot) with one OS per disk.

         Also sometimes friends come over to my house and need to use my computer to do their stuff. So it is convenient if I can easily swap out the SSD and hand it over to my friends.
