This is why companies like Apple are malicious.
So - in your opinion - any company shipping a USB 2 device is 'malicious'?
Apple was forced by the EU to stop using their old and worse connector
So they're complying, but they're purposefully limiting the less expensive phone as a malicious compliance to that
Pretty simple really
So lightning cables offer transfer rates of 480Mb/s - USB 2.0 offers 625Mb/s. You are cross that they swapped out Lightning for USB on the main models and use USB 3 as a differentiator in the Pro models. Fair enough, but that's not 'malicious'. It's not even malicious compliance.
USB 2.0 is also 480Mbps.
