I can't imagine privacy-focused Apple has any interest in selling a device that could be used to discreetly capture images. That caused no end of bad PR for Google Glass, and for the Apple of today it would be in service of a a marginally marketable feature at best.
I can certainly imagine Tim or Phil at the keynote: "When you want to take a picture, you have the best mobile camera in the world already in your pocket."
My kid does something adorable. I click a button and the last x seconds are saved from my perspective.
Snap got close, even Google Clips tried. None of them nailed it.
I understand all the privacy implications, and all the dystopian hand-wringing, but to be honest, that one thing would be pretty awesome, and I can only imagine what it would be like to look back 30 years from now.
The thing is, people with the cameras will wield power over their subject, and many will not like it.
I don't know if the answer will be laws, or polite norms, or further civilization of what people accept.
i agree though, it's a killer feature for sure.
