"John was responsible for production having been deleted" because of the systems and processes he did or did not put in place. At a high enough level of abstraction, this is all that matters.
Jony was responsible for the Touch Bar.

I'd be willing to bet that they mocked up MacBooks with full touchscreen keyboards.
Further, I don't think it's a coincidence that I don't mind typing an email (core C-level activity) on an iPad on-screen keyboard, but I'd find it infuriating to try to code on.
