I’m not saying it’s not worthwhile to do this to fix a broken phone, just that if you have to do this, then the phone was bricked, and once you’re replacing hardware, you’re not just recovering it.

You’re well into Ship of Theseus territory once you’re replacing major chips. You’ve not really recovered the phone, you’ve just replaced big chunk of it so it’s not entirely the same phone anymore, just with extra hassle because you’ve not replaced the main board as a whole.
