QA doesn't really help with online services having scaling issues

  Sure it does. Scaling can absolutely be tested in a robust way, it just requires a shitload of engineering resources to do. Apple absolutely has the financial means to test things properly, they just... seem to not care.

  To expand on king_magic’s point, this isn’t a case of a small service having a sudden spike in traffic, it’s a core service used by all devices manufactured by one the worlds largest tech companies. If they don’t test for massive scale it would shocking. It’s absolutely a QA issue.
