Honestly, the mouse charger screams marketing or management. Apple's brand is partially form over function.
What marketing genius uses a mouse upside down.
It’s better for display
Users aren’t trying before they buy so the display is the most important aspect
Trying before you buy is literally the entire point of the apple store
How often have you tried charging while there?
What software do they let you load?
When I check out a device in the store I definitely pick it up, hold it, turn it over, and generally look at every part of it. Things like a charging port on the bottom would probably stick out...
Or like in this case, with the power button on the bottom, I'd definitely notice that as annoying.
Basically anything you want, they don't tend to watch you at the apple store, unless you seem like you actually want to buy something. They want you to mess around with the machines, so I've never seen them password protected in any way, you have admin access.
