More than half of Americans have less than $5,000 in savings. HN is a place where most of the participants are wealthy, and your worldview is skewed by that. An unexpected $16,000 cost would totally blindside most families, and they shouldn't have to "manage their finances" to avoid predatory businesses.
That it's even possible to spend $16K on predatory micro-transactions - for a child OR an adult - is absolutely sickening. I hope Apple gets their ass handed to them in the current round of antitrust lawsuits.
