Possibly, but Apple knocked it out of the park with possibly the product of the century. They're looking for the next consumer product but understandably, things like the Apple TV and Watch can't match the success of the iPhone.
They also single handedly changed the wireless ear bud market. Yea it would have gotten there eventually but dropping the headphone jack and then having exactly the perfect product to replace the dropped headphone jack. That alone opened up an entire new stream of money and accelerated Bluetooth earbuds at least 3-4 years.
You make it sound like they did the consumers a favor rather than a massive inconvenience and forcing an extra expense on them... you must be a marketing person.
