Apparently it wasn't.

The thing is, the bricked device has a good display. I'm now hoping to swap that out with a flawed display in a good reader.

Still, I often wonder how manufacturers fix this sort of thing. They must have another way into the systems when they brick.
They probably don't fix that sort of thing. Just throw away. The one time I asked Sony to quote for repairing a t3, the quote was 50% higher than the retail price of a replacement. So they are not seriously in the repair busininess

You should be able to swap screens between devices if you are sufficiently dextrous and not risk averse. After all ,you have that 3rd one as a fallback option
