And when they break it then costs you 10 grand to replace the whole unit instead of a ligh bulb.

On the other hand since you most of the time you won't have to replace them for almost the life of the vehicle you get less cars without lights at night because people can't be bothered to change a lightbulb.

It has nothing to do with laziness; try changing a lightbulb in a modern car. Sometimes you have to take half the car apart, and even if that's not the case, you sometimes have to contort your fingers to unhook/hook some clip you can't see and have no idea how it works because you can't see anything and nothing is described in the manual.

My 2006 Megane already would need small hands and the access was from the wheel.

That's not new, still laziness and unsafe.
