Apple promotes their products as perfect
Apple fans as well. (Well, not necessarily “perfect” but definitely “better” than the competition. We’ve seen many cases where feature X was derided on competitors’ products, but subsequently praised when Apple added it to their product line.)
Apple doesn’t have other products if one is bad. They sell 2 laptops, so if there’s a problem with the keyboard it effects 1/2 their product line
This point is underrated.
If Apple sold appropriately updated versions of the 2012 Mac Pro and 2015 MacBook Pro alongside the 2013–2019 cylinder Mac Pro and 2016–2021 MacBook Pro with Touch Bar, then the latter two products would have gotten much less criticism.
And yet society still gives them lots more freedom than Apple does.
