I chose component accessibility; my case is NFC's S4 Mini Classic. This is because opening the side panel requires 6 screws, and while it's not easy to strip the holes due to its build quality, I still cringes everytime the holes and the panel doesn't line up and I'm screwing non-straight. I'f imagine a case for SFF enthusiasts such as this, the owner would be more likely to open it up to change stuff or manage cables etc, so an easy to access side panel would be huge plus.Magnets have come a long way; I think a combination of one or two screws and magnets would be a nice way to secure side panels.
