This is the correct take. True innovation (the uncanny valley stage) is left to pioneers. Apple will spot trends with potential and claim to be the innovator. It would show courage and humility to acknowledge this, but I understand it doesn't fit their PR narrative.

Wireless earbuds and ARM64 desktop computers look like new products to me.
Wireless earbuds did not originate from Apple, neither did desktop ARM. First True Wireless Earbuds are probably the Japanese Onkyo W800BT (2015) Windows Surface / Windows RT was the first major ARM based desktop/laptop consumer device (2012)
I said ARM64. Surface is not a desktop computer as it’s not fast enough.
