intriguing to suggest that Steve Jobs/Apple considered themselves a fairy tale "Wicked Queen" who sat in a throne and had the power to apply judgment to others.

i don't know if that was actually true about Apple, but some other large corporations seem to view themselves in exactly that way. they treat their potential business partners and vendors as if they were beastly suitors of infinite patience invested with nothing but a powerful lust for a signed contract.

There's a wicked queen in the story to be sure but it isn't Snow White, who grows up to be the "fairest in the land" and isn't a jerk about it.

It's just a name for the style that suggests it's very beautiful and yet understated.
