Dell Inspiron 14-7415: Why did Dell use more tape than my 3 year old to build a laptop?

Everything is either glued or taped in. Who in their right mind would design something like this?

P.S. Is there any way to remove the keyboard without A) Breaking it, B) flying into a blind rage?

In what seems to me like regular usage, one of the screen hinges has broken off where it connects on the outside.

Any hints on how to repair this? If not replacing parts, at least getting it back together with some adhesive would be ok if there are diagrams of what it' supposed to look like.
