Since the edit deadline has long-passed, I'll reply with a note:
I suspect my comment was downvoted by people trawling my history after seeing https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8879389 and disagreeing strongly. It may just be confirmation bias, but this isn't the first time I've noticed my older comments getting downvoted after a comment of mine gets a lot of eyeballs.
I realize karma means nothing, but this behavior harms the quality of HN. The mods may want to consider writing a detection/mitigation feature to ignore such downvotes.
Re:Battery life: Apple's solving for x

This seems like someone Apple can address themselves and if you're not buying Apple accessories do Apple even care?
It really seems like your usage style is rare. I've never had an issue with my iPhone's battery life. It easily lasts two days without worry. On the other hand, I've never thought, "This phone is too thin." Apparently, Apple thinks that the best compromise is to keep the same dimensions and let others manufacture charger cases.
