Sure, and developers should stop buying a brand that don't care about them too. That way everybody is happy. Apple can sell luxury goods and developers can shop elsewhere. Nothing of value will be lost.

Except for loss in revenue for Apple. Most tech companies right now prefer to buy Macs for devs because of the costs[1] and devs like it because of the versatility. If devs wont prefer Macs, it seems unlikely that the companies will also keep buying them in bulk
