These days, being able to check that it's turned on or has working batteries

But let's ask the list: is there anybody
else out there or that you know
who buys a product only if it has repair documentation available?
Since I have 0% electronics repair skills, no. Computer parts without any moving parts should last
forever, and in my
experience, they usually do (if cared for properly).
Natural chip decay will get 'em all in the end, but IMHO they should last for
a significant part of a person's lifetime, though.
