Disagree, they seem very reasonable. But also no one is reading those terms really, they aren’t being pushed in ads or shown at the store.

Do you have any ties to Apple?

That is the most ridiculous implication.

'We did not expect anyone to read the terms of the product, so we shouldn't have to deliver on what we promised.'

That is not resonable.

Apple is using weezle-words like "should" which gives them wiggle room, but I guess it will be up to a court to decide.

I have no ties, other than owning a few of their devices. I think you should up your prior that there exist people who generally think this is ok.

I think about 0 out of the first 100 people I know that I think of have heard any version of those claims (maybe 5 now since a few read HN). It’s probably not even a top 10,000 trafficked page on their site.

Do you have any ties against apple or for a competitor?
