The SE is an odd ball device. It is a device that is explicitly for the crowd that will not upgrade their phone every year. Apple wanted to make sure they had a 5G phone for that crowd because they want all their devices on 5G now. They could have put an A14 in it, but they needed the efficiencies of the A15 to make up for the 5G battery suck because they could only increase battery capacity so much and still fit the iPhone 8 frame.

Possibly. However, Apple does continue to sell the 12 and 12 Mini. However, the 12 Mini is substantially more expensive... because reasons.

TBH the Apple lineup has never been more confusing.
