It's probably difficult to have the resources of Apple at your disposal and really internalize that you can't do some stuff.
We used to think the same naive thing about Microsoft. "Why can't they just fix <X>. They've got all the money in the world." Sure, but at a certain point, it stops being about resources. Two women can't make a baby in 4.5 months.
We often use construction metaphors in software, but a structure is at least expected to be done at some point, not growing in size and complexity forever, unbounded. I'd bet there's a point where even in the physical world a construction crew would be paralyzed by the amount of variables involved in moving forward.
