    So many crybabies. It’s “No wireless. Less space than a Nomad. Lame.” levels of disconnect from what the average consumer actually wants

      Average consumer wants disk to not be full

        The average consumer of Apple products 100% does not care about this, it’s only an “issue” in hyper niche places like here. In the real world the average user doesn’t care or notice or more likely uses Apples Intelligence features.

        This whole thread is made up of people living in a bubble.

          The bubble is people watching every GB or MB. Regular people run out of space and wonder why their "256GB" disk is already full from much less than that. Ask my wife about her two laptops and phone.

      In my opinion, rising storage costs make it even less excusable that opt-out is not even an option.
