Then you probably want something that has replaceable parts and not an apple product (e.g. framework)?
Not trying to discourage you from building your thing, but just figure that's worth considering.
Also, I could see why developers would want excessive logging in their betas, so that's kind of a catch-22 (without the verbose logs it might be harder to fix bugs found in the beta)
I would consider such laptops not fit for purpose and wouldn't buy one in the first place. Of course, that doesn't help if that's the sort you have. Sorry.
Last time I looked at Laptops that supported ECC it was a very short and very expensive list. At least I could get enterprise datacenter SSDs... once upon a time...
I know that I DONT want iLO/IPMI/Redfish on a laptop though, the out of band stuff eats up a ton of power.

For Macs, treat a renewable AppleCare subscription as part of the cost.
You can replace your SSD without replacing your laptop.
On some laptops, it requires a complete motherboard replacement.
Really??

I think people have forgotten what year it is and how ubiquitous SoC and unified memory designs have become.
Well if 4 years decrease SSD life by 6%, then 10 years should decrease it by ~15% - so you have plenty of wiggling space.
Then you probably want enterprise level drives, motherboard, ECC RAM, etc.
I know I do!
