I'm not sure what your point is. Should they not charge anything?

'they' is a great pronoun for ambiguous cases of sex & plurality

My native language doesn't have gendered pronouns, so I make an explicit point of using "they" for a pronoun every time I can.
It's a terrible pronoun since that usage is a retrofit of a word intended to be used as a plural.

Singular they dates back to the 14th century. Isn't 600 years long enough to stop quibbling over it?
Was here to say the same thing. OP ignoring history to double-down on gender bigotry is disappointing to find on HN.

When the gender is unknown. Why apply it in every case?

No, not just when the gender is unknown.

Do you also avoid “you” when referring to just one person?
I know an individual who used to think like that; do you want to know why they changed their mind?

Retrofit? The singular they has been used in English literature as far back as the 13th century, not exactly recent

There is no ambiguity here.

That seems pretty fair given the work put in to make what appears to be a much better experience than having to use it in the browser in VisionOS

1.78 trillion dollar company could have made app, or even better, not disable the iPad version in contempt.

is it contempt or simply a negotiation tactic?

It would matter to me, or maybe a Vision Pro user. If Google is holding out as a negotiation tactic, there may be an official app in the future, if Apple compromises on revenue share.
If it is contempt or another reason, maybe the possibility if an official app is less likely.

Again, as a user, why is this our problem?
Let's all stop picking sides when trillion dollar companies fight each other at the expense of an open inter-operable Internet.

If you want an open internet don’t use the app and just use the website that works.
Good grief
