I'm pretty sure the engineering team was already aware of the bug, and already working frantically on fixing it in secret...
I think we could safely say that is apocryphal.
It's just a bit too detailed to be merely apocryphal. It even describes "The small drop of aerosolized, Jobsian spittle landing in his right eye". You just can't make this up. http://vanshardware.com/2010/07/the-legend-of-apples-steve-jobs/
Probably takes time to fix.. I don't know if Apple's little legs can run faster based on the sensitivity of the issue, but.... anything is possible
At this point, all there is, is a loss of functionality. But I'm sure Apple is on "red alert" fixing the issue.
Oh my, how memory is a fickle thing. This mythical perfect Apple you dream about never existed. It was very common even when Jobs was in charge for users to wait weeks or months before updating their Macs until the major bugs in the latest OS were worked out. I don't know where people get this idea that Apple was perfect under Jobs. There's nothing special about the bugs found now except there are many more Apple customers.
I didn't say that, the fix will be 12.1.4 whenever it is ready. I just assumed the latest 12.2 beta would have fixed it, which isn't clear if it does or not.
