Would it be feasible to install Klipper on the Elegoo Centaury Carbon in the future (even if it requires a new mainboard)?

Misc

I'm thinking about buying the Elegoo Centaury Carbon, and while I don't plan to replace the firmware right away, I'm looking ahead a few years.

Once Elegoo eventually stops supporting the printer, I want to be able to keep it updated. So I'm wondering: would it be reasonably straightforward to install Klipper on the Centaury Carbon down the line, even if it means replacing the mainboard?

Has anyone looked into this or done something similar with this printer? My good old Ender 3 is still alive and kicking, better than when it arrived, thanks to these kinds of updates. Any insight would be appreciated!
