Nope. Rolling out features in your home country is pretty normal. Apple does it all the time.

What I have problem is slow roll out features across the globe, when you cant see or understand the reason behind it.

Bad example, Apple's market share is tiny anywhere besides the US.

And this isn't a new thing. They partnered with an established vpn provider. Horizontal scaling won't be an issue there.

There is really no reason, but I don't really care either

And there is really no reason to not go to the actual provider. Same price and you can use it on all platforms. They even provider a wireguard backend.

What?

So is iPhone Upgrade Programme, or Apple Pay where NFC were well established. There are always things to iron out before taking it further.

Apple's market share in Japan is big.

Not sure about other places yet.
