Just because a tool is great for working remotely does not mean remote working is good.

Turkey marketing its drones as great for war does not mean Turkey is being hypocritical for saying that war isn’t good.

So lets say Apple doesn't believe "remote working" is good in general. Why would they be building tools for something they don't think is good?

I don’t see Apple claiming remote working is not good in general. They just don’t believe remote working is good for them.

And again, Turkey creating great drones does not require them to believe war is good.

This is a pretty straightforward logical fallacy.

> Turkey creating great drones does not require them to believe war is good.

I don’t think that’s the correct analogy. It’s more like Turkey creating great drones while also believing that drones are not an effective way to wage war.

Isn't it $entity creates $tool. $tool is used by people for $scenario. $entity doesn't like $scenario.

Apple nowhere said their products aren't good for remote work...?

> Why would they be building tools for something they don't think is good?

other than profits for shareholders?

money?
Your Turkey allegory isn't fitting due to "si vis pacem para bellum". Turkey can say war isn't good, and one of the best ways to dissuade potential enemies is by being good at war. Nothing similar is at play with Apple.
