Then why leave tilt sensitivity? Tilt sensitivity has a much less usage case than pressure. Plus making this pen, as CITYSNAPS has kept trying to push, just for business users who don't want pressure sensitivity does not make sense. I guarantee it's much more cost effective to disable pressure a system wide software option than you know... Developing a whole new product with R&D, manufacturing costs, distribution costs etc.

Really my guess is this was a middle finger to the EU regalatory commission on having to adapt everything usb c. Just like the wattage on the USB C iPhones....

What? How is removing pressure sensitivity, and charging less for it, a middle finger to the EU regulatory commission?
