I think $5 is _beyond_ fair, considering every user will have dropped >$3k on hardware.

Conversely, if I spent $3.5k on a device, I'm not paying a cent more to watch YouTube on it.
You would certainly be in the minority, Apple profits alone state that people are more then willing to pay an excessively large sum of money for products and then buy $1000 stands.
With that logic every app that is free on an iPhone pro max must be unfair.
If you think that for every fact in life, the inverse is also true, then you're bad at logic.
For apps that run exclusively on brand new iPhone pro max's, sure.

...but seeing as that isn't the case.

If developers could price apps differently for the cheap Vs expensive iPhones, they would.
They do. Death stranding only works on the newest iphone. You're free to buy a non functional app but it happens as for ipad only.
