> Apple playing 5d chess.

I think you're giving them too much credit. This is Apple's way of admitting they were wrong.

5d chess is usually only ever said in a sarcastic context, so the implication is that Apple didn't plan this at all

Well at least they admitted it. If they doubled down with the butterfly keyboard and touchbar crap they would rapidly die to a better designed linux capable book. or just become one of the many commercial vendors.

More to the point, they now have someone else designing these laptops.

It would be interesting to read the former designers take on the new machines.
