Some smartass engineer should have sold Tim Cook on the docks by rebranding them as dongles. Then Apple would have put out ten different coloured dongle-docks for each new device. Related: ▶ this video

Apple is very happy to sell you a $$$$ phone/laptop and then $$ dongles to make it actually work with the other things in the world. This is old, but still gold ▶ this video
