In case of software money will only go so far to offset the scope creep.
If the scope is too large any company will fail, regardless of budget.
Apple historically was always removing features that add bulk but are not necessary (although some people need them).
To give some examples:
- with one of the MacOS releases they announces there are no new features in the OS, just a cleanup of unnecessary stuff
- they removed support for 32 bit apps a year ago - personally I found it painful as some stuff stopped working, but I understand this was done to streamline the system
- and so on
Sure it’s sometimes irritating, but otherwise you risk ending up with a mess that Windows is.
As a side note - since they switched from physical medium it was weird to me personally that there even is a standalone installer - why not make it a system update? This year they finally did the switch.
