Half the reason you have parts people is to protect the inventory.

Also, anyone can look up parts, but being aware of nuances is another thing.

Because with 3DPrinting spare parts will be less likely to be sold in brick & mortar & in the future all the data needed for the part will be distributed online just like sites like thingiverse,youmagine,pinshape, cults3D , MyMiniFactory & various others & will be available to make at home or where there is a 3DPrinter & this parts are available anywhere with internet which saves money on shipping & can cut on border duty & collaboration is worldwide and if a part breaks it can be remade without needing to buy a new part & a lot of those parts are free though some are paid design , but the designs are unlimited similar to downloading music
