Really confused about Apple's recent design choices.
You cannot charge Apple's flagship smartphone with Apple's flagship laptop without an adapter that does not come bundled with either of the two!

Joe Consumer will buy an iPhone, AirPods, and Mac Pro without thinking, and iCloud will manage the syncing, and the nightly charge most users require will happen overnight next to their bed. They'll never miss the iphone->mac cable because they'll never need it. Same with the headphone jack.
I really miss the 3.5" port, but I get why Apple did it. It's consumer unfriendly, but good for business.
So now Apple, instead of improving the ecosystem, is trying to make the alternative worse. Quite sad.
