      @McCloudStrife @mjtsai And if you give prominence only to those corporations with cash to throw around, the innovation will go away.

      @CraigGrannell @mjtsai I still don’t understand why you think innovation for innovation’s sake matters more to a for-profit entity.

      @McCloudStrife @CraigGrannell Because much of the value of Apple’s devices depends on what you can do with them, which apps are available.

      @mjtsai @CraigGrannell BTW, you could do more if you could sideload iOS apps and have better sandbox entitlements on OS X, too.

      @McCloudStrife @CraigGrannell I think they should do both of those things.

      @mjtsai @CraigGrannell But they haven’t. Did you ever try to roleplay as an Apple exec and wonder why, from your POV, didn’t you do that?

      @McCloudStrife @CraigGrannell Of course. I still think they’re wrong or perhaps shortsighted.

      @McCloudStrife @CraigGrannell But, who knows, maybe the correct long-term play is to focus on watch and cars while the rest withers.

      @mjtsai @CraigGrannell I think it’s wrong to neglect OS X, but the execs and engineers owning Apple stock, if rational, would focus on iOS.

      @McCloudStrife @mjtsai For Jobs, money seemed like a means to an end—a way to try new things. For Cook, bottom line is more important.

      @CraigGrannell @mjtsai Let me ask you this, honest answer please: how do you think Jobs would have reacted to this:http://www.theverge.com/2016/2/3/10900612/walt-mossberg-apple-iphone-ios-mac-osx-app-problems …

          @McCloudStrife @CraigGrannell Hard to say. Might have micromanaged and fixed. Or pretended there no problem like with iPhone 4 antenna.

          @mjtsai @CraigGrannell Have you guys seen this, especially Ben Thompson’s counterargument? https://marco.org/2016/04/21/paid-app-store-search …

          @McCloudStrife I agree with most of what Marco says. I think most people are expecting the “bad search-ad system, on top of bad search.”

          @mjtsai @McCloudStrife Thompson is demonstratively wrong re 'pay once' games. The gist is broadly right from both though.

          @CraigGrannell @mjtsai Mind elaborating on that “pay once games” part? I’m interested to hear your $0.02.

          @CraigGrannell @mjtsai Ah, I see what you mean. I don’t think this is sustainable at under $10 per game for most games out there.

          @McCloudStrife @mjtsai I don't disagree. My point was merely that Apple has highlighted such games

          @McCloudStrife @mjtsai … certain decisions Apple’s made, and rightfully so, regarding overly complex UIs and interactions.

          @CraigGrannell @mjtsai OK, follow-up question: would you feel safer in an autonomous car running Apple or Tesla software? 🍿

          @McCloudStrife @mjtsai e.g. giving Ive overall design control struck me as odd at the time. Is he a UI designer? No. (And it shows.)

        @McCloudStrife @mjtsai Too often, thinking doesn’t feel joined up. Needs a taste arbiter. Not sure one exists there now.
