I'm sure Apple did that so they could upgrade you to the keyboard for "only" $30 more. As I've said before Phil Schiller's main job seems to be figuring out how he can get you to spend more money.
You're no better than a spambot at this point. I don't know how many fucking times you've made that statement, as if you think it's so incredibly clever and original that it needs to be repeated an infinite amount of times. Maybe, I don't know, find some kind of hobby? Seems you're obsessed with this thing to an unhealthy degree, even though I doubt you even own an iPad Pro, nor plan to buy one. There's gonna be a million case options soon. Maybe you should write a book about Apple's diabolical plan to upsell a niche accessory for a niche product, as if that will even make a blip in their earnings.

Yes and no. It is great that it is small and travel friendly. It is great that it supports both orientations for most Watches. It is not so great that you can't place a Watch with a Milanaise band or link bracelet in flat mode.
So, you think that it's an imperfect design because Apple didn't try to find a way to allow use in a largely useless 'flat mode' for a continuous watch band? If you want your Milanese or link bracelet laid out flat, disconnect one end from the watch. Takes what, 3 seconds? I don't know. Don't have one, but it's still an awfully strange thing to find flaw in. What perceived benefit are you inferring from 'flat mode' that I can't see? I'll give you benefit of the doubt that maybe I'm just not looking at it like a ou are, and simply require enlightenment, so illuminate me!

Wouldn't be surprised if she was 'responding' to the Mac Pro Security Lock as well:
