Spent 4 hours on a 'dead' laptop that just had a stuck power button

It was a Dell Latitude 7490, and the user swore it wouldn't turn on at all. I finally popped the keycap off and found a tiny piece of plastic jammed under it. Anyone else had a simple fix hide as a major headache?

Man, that's the worst kind of fix! (Feels so good when you find it, but so annoying that it took that long.) I swear, half of "dead" electronics just have something stupid like a stuck button or a loose cable.

But what if the real fix is finding the patience to look for those simple things?
