  >but it feels like they've given this some thought and decided to not go with that based on some sort of rationale Was it the same rationale they used to ship the broken butterfly keyboard for 4 years straight, or for the uncomfortable bottom charging mouse that even hardcore Apple fans don't use? It's always funny to see people making excuses for the poor decisions of their favorite corporation as if Apple can do no wrong and it isn't capable of making stupid decisions just like any other big corporation subject to the same internal turf wars and power struggles.

    Nobody is saying that they don’t make mistakes but the reason we remembered the butterfly keyboard is that it was a rare high-profile mistake. It seems reasonable to bet that this will be like one of the many thousands of decisions they’ve made well rather than the few memorable failures.
