Apple used to pick and champion technical innovation, and worked around politics, ideology or cost ( patent ) issues. Unfortunately that is no longer the case.

That has never been true. Steve Jobs split the company into warring factions with the Lisa and when that failed Jobs took over Wozniak's Macintosh project and restarted the civil war all over again.

Apple LOVES proprietary standards like Lightning despite harming UX because of their "fuck you pay me" attitude towards their customers.

I advise against glorifying a rich asshole who died from cancer because they thought they could cure it with fruit juice.

This is utter crock, they always heavily preferred close proprietary format they themselves held parents for.
