Thanks for sharing. I would also choose normal repair option in this case.

They also just changed my battery with no extra charge which is never going to be the case with self-repair.

The article mentions "Customers can purchase display assemblies that consist of the phone screen, metal frame, bezel and battery to replace the display. " I guess the self-repair kit includes the battery though.

They are, the screen and the battery are glued together and sold as a single unit for $167 in the US. You can see the assembly on ifixit.com.

There's only three assemblies offered, at least for the S22. The screen + battery, the charging port, and the back glass.
