The software fix also leads to a phone that lasts longer.

Bad for Apple? No.

If you consider the phone usable, sure... But the number one reason to buy a new phone over an old one is because it is slow.

Sure but that’s an effect of new phones being a lot faster because of advances.

That is a very charitable viewpoint in the context where apple are accused of slowing down devices.
