A disk so full, it couldn't be restored

I'm most surprised by the lack of testing. Macs tend to ship with much smaller SSDs than other computers because that's how Apple makes money ($600 for 1.5TB of flash vs. $100/2TB if you buy an NVMe SSD), so I'd expect that people run out of space pretty frequently.

And if you make the experience broken and frustrating people will throw the whole computer away and buy a new one since the storage can’t be upgraded.

Not to mention potentially paying for your cloud storage for life.

Don't forget to make it so nothing they have works properly with any other brands devices so the next one they buy must also be Apple.

Rinse and repeat.
