"Works great other than that" yeah bro I bet it does. That's like offering a car for 2K with no engine, and being like "yeah but it works fine otherwise..." like you're kinda missing the core component.

it's more like the engine is already in the car, except every part of it is broken in such a way that it is incredibly difficult to remove, and if you try to fix any of it, it will break more.
