One sees this logical fallacy so often with Apple and its fans. It’s almost certainly encouraged by Apple as well.
Let’s say there’s a product that has 2 similar features A & B.
For its next version of the product Apple removes feature B.
Then folks complain about how there are things they cannot do because feature B is missing.
The Apple fans respond by extolling the benefits of feature A.
The problem is that I already had all those benefits of feature A when Apple shipped the product with both A and B. The Apple fans convert the actual argument, which is (A AND B) vs (Only A) into a strawman argument, which is (Only B) vs (Only A).

Personally I think going to another country and buying a disposable SIM card and hoping I don't lose my other one and all of these other things is much more of a hassle than something like landing, turning off airplane mode, and then just selecting a plan that works for me all set up with Apple Pay that I could have done before I even get off the plane. Then again, just using a carrier that has global coverage would be even better.
