Apple has always put the absolute least amount of memory in these tablets they could get away with, around ~half of competitors. They made up for it with very tight memory management optimizations. That worked for a while, but the world ha

Have a ipad 2 here not turned on in ~five years. It could no longer handle any websites, not enough RAM. Would be great to use it for something, but it has an A5, not A7 or 8, according to Wikipedia.

In this case it looks more like loss aversion, protecting themselves from customer lawsuits. I'm sure there are other use cases for the data. Self-driving improvements have been mentioned.
