If you're being honest, I apologize. I find it a bit difficult to believe but maybe it's really that the style is everywhere now. Partially it's sentence pattern cliches:

>Not just sell. Not just ship. Use.

>The honest read ... The hopeful read ...

>The grumbling isn’t about features. It’s about the texture of using the products.

>Yes, Apple Silicon is incredible. Yes, the Watch saved lives. Yes, the iPhone got better cameras

There's also bizarre not-quite-landing uncanny metaphors that LLMs love to do:

>Today's Apple ships friction and treats it like background radiation.

>The texture changed.

>And the rot follows that exact line.

If you're surrounded by this kind of writing, it may be good to get other inspirations. It's bad!
