No, not for fashion. Just to enjoy using it. The technical solution is only one part of designing something consumers actually connect with, and that, ultimately, is where the money is.
I don't think you understand the meaning of the word 'dictatorship'. The first thing I do on a new Mac is turn off the default 'only allow apps from the Mac App Store' security setting and then I can install anything I like. If you have the option to opt out, it's not a dictatorship.
The point of my original post is that the user experience *is* the more for which I'm paying.
It absolutely is about the hardware (and what they've done at the OS level to support that). The resolution and extremely low latency of the stylus makes this a different class of experience - akin to the conceptual break between old touchscreens and modern 1:1 instantaneous response (iPhone, Android 4.1+, etc). It's a distinction lots of people overlooked at the time, but I'm willing to bet it will be as fundamental this time round as it was with touch. I've had all three Surface Pros, each time hoping the stylus input would be good enough for creative work, and it just isn't. It's still just the basic input method that Jobs dissed. If the iPad Pro does what it appears to from the videos, this is conceptually different from any other current device.
Though I'm still hoping the Surface 4 has gone the same route...
Yes, if only we lived in your strictly utilitarian world and didn't have to deal with burdens like differences in taste, personal choice, fashion, interesting form factors for their own sake, or change.
Just a Dora The Explorer is a factual representation of the world of Dora The Explorer. By your definition a fact can be literally anything and of any relative value. i.e. a pointless distinction unless we're talking about a comparison to reality. Which was the OP's point, I believe.

So the packaging it comes in is technically an Xbox One X box.

I see that your solution is word ransomization.

And we thought we'd have to wait until we were a stage 6, at least.

Wait, Malcolm in the Middle did the graphics for Battle of Wesnoth?!
I think that's called Mulholland Drive Syndrome. You have a real problem...
You pronounce 'vase' like the Americans? And you call yourself British?!
Where the subject matter is not of a measurable or falsifiable nature, Google would have a third category, which flags pages with "Who gives a shit?".

Computing... Verification complete.
Why has it taken this long to re-render it in HD? Blender could have done this years ago.
Hey, I have a glandular problem, you insensitive clod.
So if it already knows we're human, why do we still have to fill in a captcha?
