What is the profit for a manufacturer if you buy one laptop and use it for 10 years straight instead of buying a new one every 3 years?

Also they not only solder DRAM, now they solder keyboards so that you cannot replace it easily. My garbage keyboard broke after just 2 years of using and I had to solder ~100 plastic pins to replace it (and the replacement keyboard turned out to be not of a great quality).
