Ok, Apple rarely admit they are wrong, and when they do, they tend to spin it heavily. I don’t think this meaningfully changes the primary message of my comment though.

Or the changes to the new version of Safari in response to user feedback.

But that was GP's point: They listen to feedback and improve things, but typically quietly, rather than admitting a mistake. Exceptions do prove the rule.

What was the mistake for this example though that they would admit to? Iterating aggressive UX changes in a beta?

Every single one of them was to the point Apple could no longer hold the bad press or damaging to sales figure they admit they were wrong. Or more like they didn't, they just accept defeat.

Mac Pro was a mess when one of their largest customer told them they will switch their whole studio away from Apple right in front of Eddy's Cue face before some thing was being done.
