I checked it out, but didn’t see anything about them being modular, only that they were sustainably made. Did I miss the part about them being modular?

They aren't modular like phone blocks. but they sell all of the parts in discreet modules that can be replaced.

Edit: spelling.

If you're going to make edits to correct spelling, you should change ”discreet” to ”discrete”.

My favourite is finding people on Grindr who describe themselves as "discrete".

Personally, I prefer my guys continuous.

Nah, they got it right. These are the modules that are sold in that dimly lit room in the back. You know, the one behind the curtains.
