Apple protects its profits. Encryption that enables privacy protections for consumers also stops cops investigating crime.
Apple is not your friend and does not have your best interest at heart. It is a company like Facebook, Microsoft, Ford, Boeing... They all just want the money. If making hard to break encryption sells more units, then that is the only motivation.

The only people who might even be aware of it are tech people, and that doesn't move the needle at all. See the tech people gripes about the Macbook Pro, which went on to sell well anyway.
