Casual audience regularly swaps out HDD's in their consoles, they're capable of swapping out a GPU, they're on par for difficulty/complexity.

Do you have any stats to back up that claim?  I sincerely doubt that the casual audience is regularly swapping out their hard drives.  On the 360 where it was a click-in on the side of the system sure.  On anything that they have to go in though, generally people aren't willing to do that.

Yeah, I've done both. Swapping out the PS3 HDD actually required removing more screws than is necessary with a GPU.

That doesn't prove that the majority of people buying consoles are doing so though.  That just proves that you have done so.
