You’re being a little bit unfair. The camera on an iPhone is a pretty vital feature. However, if there was an option where only one of the 3 cameras worked by default, the lidar would be off by default and so would the 120Hz refresh rate and 5G, trust me, a lot of people would go for the cheaper offering and turn those on as needed as part of a subscription. In my case, the iPhone 13 Pro, I don’t make much use of 5G and 120 Hz screen or even lidar but I had to pay for them anyhow cause I needed the other bits the Pro comes with.
