That’s ok. You don’t need to buy it.

The smartphone market is filled with phones subsidized by information harvesting money and where the economies of scale side with entities in a race to the bottom.

I’m personally happy to pay a premium for a product with different priorities.

Exactly. Specialized tools in any industry cost more than regular consumer-grade tools. Why would we expect this to be different?
