What. Apple has no issues trusting Apple 100% completely, nor do any of their users. Or more specifically, Apple itself is simply an inseparable part of the core trust foundation since they control the entire stack of hardware, firmware and software. You calling this "hypocritical BS" is just nonsense, it's like acting shocked that Apple doesn't allow any random developer to issue microcode processor updates even though Apple could. Of course Apple can, there is no equality there. Apple develops private code and dogfoods it before making it public. Any platform developer by definition has to do low level stuff as part of making higher level stuff. This is not difficult. "Hypocrisy" gets thrown around way too often on the Internet, and if you do so you are basically always wrong, either because it's not actually hypocrisy at all (the word is not a synonym for "anything I don't like") or because it's a meaningless thing to say anyway vs more substantive complaints.
