Well again, that is another problem. BT headphones have proven to be a pain to deal with in the past. Pairing especially is a huge issue. Instead of working with the industry on that, they went with a proprietary solution which is implement

Which is a hassle. If you are making headphones now in 2016 and beyond, you are going to have to deal with the lightening port to be competitive in the iPhone accessory market.

The real issue here is this might be anti-competitive, and go as far as being an anti-trust issue. Apple can now limit who makes headphones for the iPhone and the ones that are "allowed" could end up seeing their headphones far mo

The issue here is win rate. Ask any lawyer or prosecutor and they take pride in that win rate and how many people they have "put away". To get that rate up, they often go after the poor and people who have committed petty crimes w

Yes, yet people still came into the Apple store with questions in 2007 regardless of how easy you thought it was. Just because it is easy for you doesn't make it easy for the other 80% of the population.

Mobile and web aside, the amount of dead space in each of these pages is absurd. A lot of the pixels on the screen are just white or grey. One would argue, this is one of the major drawbacks of material design.

I believe Prop 13 forbids the property-value taxes you are suggesting. This is the main reason why cities are not incentivized to build housing. The rather build office buildings, malls, etc. There is just more money in it.
