This isn’t how markets work. Suppliers can’t just “do whatever they want”. If there’s no demand for a project you’ll very quickly go out of business that way. It is up to the consumers, and people chose iPhones over chunky android phones with hot swappable batteries and the like.

You can’t really be a “sustainable” company (or anything, really) when you’re out of business.

people chose iphones when they were far superior to everything else and have been (largely) locked-in by switching costs ever since.

No, it's up to regulators to fix market failures like this one.
