Yeah I mean we have an example of thinness overtaking use in this monitor cable design (though I’m sure it wasn’t purposely “hey let’s make this thing thinner so the monitor cables will break!” At worst it was maybe a junior designer being overruled saying this could be a problem in a larger percent of cases than y’all are thinking) but extra battery life being nice to have is true but not a daily necessity. I mean in the past ten days I broke 50% battery useage twice and 75% 0 times. Average screen on of 4hrs 16 min and another couple hrs of screen off time.
Their new battery case is a perfect way to deal with that nice to have capacity. I don’t need it, already have an Anker battery for long days (e.g. on airplanes) but if your friends need it there’s a solution that doesn’t mean many users (I’m guessing Apple knows that it is most, but I don’t know that for sure) don’t have to carry it around every day and never use it.
