Quote 1: "...even consider buying Macs because...crappy laptops that cost the same or more than the MBP's we all wanted but it a complete no-go."
Lemme call this BS. Apple's hardware is expensive crap compared to other. I can make at least 50% cheaper from parts desktops/laptops having the same performance.
Quote 2: "...but we were running VMs...but I was the only team member who could build/test the iOS builds because I had a Mac."
I call this another BS. My machine is running Windows as host OS. My VMs are Linux(Ubuntu and Mint)/Android(both Vm and emulators - Bluestacks an Memu)/Raspbian and MacOS (at least 10 MacOS VMs starting with Mountain Lion 12 years ago and copy/upgrade a new one every time a new MacOS was released). I can run any flavor I want and do cross-platform build at the same time.

Conclusion - you're lying.
