Honestly I think this is the best argument above all else. Yeah Apple can technically create the software the FBI wants and while it could be used as a precedent setting case, that isn't guaranteed. But forcing a company to write custom software and essentially work for the government for however long with them directing resources towards this versus other areas of their business? This could seriously hurt their business not just from PR but from a resourcing perspective. I don't think any company should be forced into working for the government. Maybe some exceptions exist for things like physical manufacturing pipelines during war time but this is obviously not that.
