Another great viewpoint, thanks for sharing that.
Annoying to some of us (miniscule percentage of the total) that sense the wider implications, however to the average consumer this discussion is far too remote of a chain of concepts. I expect near zero blowback from the consumers, which is the only voice to which Apple will listen. The most profitable company in the world will keep on suing their competitors to protect the heap that they fought to the top of, shiny gadgets.
