Fully sealed is probably also desirable by Apple to kill off the screen/battery replacement market.

Fully sealed? So no built-in microphone or speaker either?
Open headphone jacks and ports in a water resistant phone has been a solved problem from Sony for nearly a decade with the Xperia line.
Likewise with Apple's water resistant iPhone line. iPhones have been IP67 rated since the iPhone 7, and IP68 since the iPhone XS.
