Just adopt the opposite point of view:
You could, by default, have lots of visibility in your supply chain. Or you could get a substantial discount in return for giving up on that visibility.
You are arguing that the discount should be smaller?
And enormous expense. You shouldn't have to have Apple money to establish visibility into, and security of, your supply chain. I mean, do you really want to be down in the weeds trying to make sure the coltan isn't essentially coming from Rwandan warlords? Apple can afford that, most people can't.
