Naw they didn't have to take it apart.
Months after receiving and studying their test model, they issued a
statement saying, in part, that:
"...... when the toddler learned how to say 'no', we came to the
conclusion that it had a mind of its' own, and ANY manual would prove
to be useless. Besides, it was keeping us awake at night, constantly
throwing lunch on the floor, and when it wasn't peeing on the floor in
defiance of toilet training, it was hiding our car keys or waking us
up from naps".
They also included a foot note on this one page statement, stating that:
"refiiting is simply a reversal of removal" ..... or some such.
