There's no evidence that Apple is a threat.
You claimed that Apple could already remotely execute any code at any time. That sounded very sinister, as if Apple had added a secret back door to the OS, but it was extremely misleading at best, completely false at worst. Yes, Apple can ship software updates, as we all know. But that's not a threat in itself.
I don't want to hear what Apple could theoretically do. Your lover could theoretically kill you while you sleep. How's that for a threat model? Are you going to sleep alone for the rest of your life? I suspect it's actually more likely, though, than Apple shipping the malicious OS update that you fear.
