We may need to agree to disagree on the whole "durability threshold = can vs. can't repair" issue - I still mostly agree with Stabbey on this, but I don't think anyone's going to change their minds at this point, and the horse has been beaten to death many times over. But the important thing is we generally seem to agree that permanent durability loss needs to be removed, as Gyson said in the OP.
I just hope Larian takes this into account and reconsiders the Repair mechanic as they think best.
