Now as to Apple, I don't have to buy their products and if I do I know what to expect. If it really mattered or should I say bothered me enough I certainly would buy a different product.

E.g.: https://puri.sm/products/librem-5-usa/ https://puri.sm/products/librem-5-usa/ But the issue wasn't about manufacturing to begin with.
