Ah yeah, that's what I took you to mean, ok
thank you.[doublepost=1458517905][/doublepost]
Your very last sentence concisely sums up exactly why Apple are SO successful, and why their designs work SO well, if you will excuse me stating an obvious point that is more blinding than the sun
Apple don't (and shouldn't) care too much what people think about their control over their own products. I trust their input and control over their platforms more than ANY other technology vendor, bar none. They have, time and again, proven themselves to be ethical and responsible, with a fun and light-hearted, intelligent sense of how to do business, coupled with HUGE doses of good taste and extreme attention being paid to how others perceive them and their products, and how said products work. People often mis-construe Apple as being "arrogant" - they mistake HUGE confidence and forward-thinking for "arrogance", where the traits could come across as almost identical, but the truth is that Apple look forward and are EXTREMELY decisive and confident, and, because most companies are only interested in keeping up with one another whilst trying to APPEAR to be forward thinking and independent, lip service, if you will.
The majority of technology companies seem incapable of seeing past their noses to the end of the YEAR, so, by contrast, no wonder Apple come across as "arrogant" to those incapable of the depth and breadth of their thought processes.
