Yeah, Apple has normalized misleading marketing speak.
Here's one from 2017 about the iPhone
> iPhone X: Apple's new 'edge-to-edge' screen includes strange notch at the top
> The screen doesn't actually go edge-to-edge, despite descriptions that refer to it that way. Or rather, it goes to three of the edges – leaving a little cut-out at the top, where the screen can't quite reach to the top of the display.

- copperx 4y agoIn the Steve Jobs era, their marketing was extremely clever. In those times, Apple did not claim something objectively false, like in this case; they only oh-so-subtly suggested that their technology was superior to everything else. Apple's copy since Jobs left has become wordy and unfocused. I can't stand it.
