Echo minimalist’s comment here. Prop the display up and skip to step 19 to save time and remove risk.

As per my comment on step 10, this is also not required. When you remove the SSD in step 22, you can just fold it over out of the way.

For an easier, lower-risk repair, skip this step and step 18 - go straight to step 19 and fold the speaker out of the way.

Skip this step. For an easier, lower-risk repair, go straight to step 15 and just fold the speaker out of the way.
