I have anyhow no idea what they mean with 'handmade in Sweden'. The board must be soldered by a machine (hand soldering would be a catastrophe), the enclosure is obviously NC - not hand - machined and for the assembly an iPhone-like mostly robot assisted assembly certainly would be more reliable than hand assembly but might not be possible for the rather small production quantity.
But IMO the main drawbacks of the X1D are the various hardware issues (sub-optimal sensor heat dissipation, lack of joystick for AF point selection*, lack of shutter, battery size/ life time, no ultra sonic sensor cleaning) and the ongoing beta-status of the software (unacceptable slow start, slow response/ no response of certain touch screen actions, no response/ double response of dials, firmware crashes ...).
* I see the AF point selection by joystick to be now the standard for mirrorless cameras since introduced with Leica SL, Fuji X-T2 and GFX, Sony A9 and probably others
