Following today's launch of the new iPhone 16 models, Apple has shared repair manuals for the iPhone 16, the iPhone 16 Plus, the iPhone 16 Pro, and the iPhone 16 Pro Max. The repair manuals provide technical instructions on replacing genuine Apple parts in the ‌iPhone 16‌ models, and Apple says the information is intended for "individual technicians" that have the "knowledge, experience, and tools" that are necessary to repair electronic devices.

The closest Apple store to me is a 90-minute drive. The closest place to me selling Apple devices is a Walmart a few miles away.

There is a place in town which repairs Apple devices. It is not an Apple store.

Which place would I rationally take it to if I wanted to get it repaired?

Step one: take to Apple Store
Step two: get repaired at Apple Store

See the 'rationally' part and explain how the 90 minute drive is the rational option.
