People can be right and on a vendetta at the same time. The only thing relevant for this heading is: does the EPA report point at an actual problem?

No

This does not seem to align with what the report states. The report lists 19 potential violations.

19 potential violations, most of which were mislabeled and unlabeled things or poor storage habits and addressed (meaning they aren't violations).

The rest of it was things being managed under state/local rules that should have been managed under federal rules which Apple still has time to fix and make them not violations.

I do not think it is fair/honest to focus on the mundane findings, then use that to debase the entire report.

but it's a strong indictor

I do not think that is reasonable to believe that because a report has some mundane findings that it indicates that the whole report should be dismissed.

all of the findings are mundane

I do not think that can be so confidently asserted entirely one way or another with the information we have now, unless we have in our midst someone who is an expert in reading EPA reports.

As a proud owner of multiple Apple™ products I can assure you this report is totally trivial. Apple™ has never and will never do anything wrong!
