That's the same whenever it's a bit of kit manufactured by someone else but fitted to an a/c by the a/c manufacturer which is quite a list. The only one who has the picture of which bits went where (and overall airworthiness responsibility) are Boeing so they have responsibility for sorting it out.
I've seen your car,
ATC Watcher, and so, when the old Ferrari Stradale breaks down you'll be straight down to Ferrari when the electric motor goes U/S - you don't care that YASA actually makes the motor!
PS For anyone from YASA legal dept reading this, that's just a random, made-up, illustrative case and is in no way a slight on your ground-breaking products!!!!! And there is an aviation link too as a new world record for all-electric flight of 300.14 kts was set in November 2021 by a YASA-powered aircraft - breaking the previous record by a mere 114.7 kts. And there was a time-to-height record thrown in for good measure!!!!!!
