    You can believe what you want, but the CO2 emission reduction just from shipping much smaller packages is immense.

    I find it rather interesting that these low-IQ iKooks _believe_ the
    emissions bullshit from Apple's MARKETING team, hook, line, & sinker.

    Apple's strategy _clearly_ is to slowly remove functionality year after year. So that you have to buy it back.

    Removal of the aux port and the charger in the box has _nothing_ to do with what Apple says but in what Apple does.

    Not including chargers had nothing to do with environmental concerns

    Actually, it does have obvious environmental benefits.

    You don't know anything about Apple if you believe that's why they did it.

    The reason you believe that is simply because of three things, Jolly Roger:
    1. Your IQ is too low to comprehend facts
    2. Your education is literally below the high school level
    3. And, your ego is in the toilet (understandably so) where you are
    _desperate_ to gain some kind of self-esteem from Apple motivation.

    it was to reduce their costs

    That's a benefit too. Both can be (and are) true. You just hate the
    former due to your bias. : )

    Apple's strategy clearly is to slowly remove functionality year after year.
    So that you have to buy it back.

    You just don't own the IQ to comprehend that adult fact.

    and to increase sales of fast chargers

    Nope. And you have failed to produce any evidence to back that false assertion, as usual. Your words mean nothing.

    Apple proved by their actions they removed the chargers so that they could
    sell more fast chargers (it's also why Apple uses laughably puny batteries).

    Your education is so low, Jolly Roger, that you'll never comprehend that.
