I am asking myself what this whole pride symbol has to do with developers. 
It rather looks like a political statement since Trump has pushed all companies to remove the diversity program.

Wow someone is a little triggered. The colors are green through blue and represent the original Apple logo colors.
The Pride logo is Red through purple like a true rainbow.

Over the years I've helped probably a thousand people with storage management concerns. I have always been surprised by how many people never delete a message and have migrated years of conversations across many devices. Record convo was just short of 10 years between two sisters that contained almost daily photos. The reaction of people when their device takes 10-30 seconds to calculate storage and generate the little color bar is so fun. The other great reaction is when people realize how long they've tapped past the "This Device has not been backed up in XXX infinity time"
John/Jane Q Regular user will generally fill whatever storage they have and buy the next capacity larger next device rather than manage storage.

Alteratively does Apple provide an easy way to sync your ios device to a computer if I don't want to pay for iCloud. If I am in proximity to my Mac with my iPhone why can these two devices not sync between easy other automatically? 

Syncing and backup have always been available via wire (first firewire then USB) since the original iPod over 23 years ago. Syncing contacts, calendars and bookmarks does not require iCloud storage. Back in the day wifi was an option for backup to a Mac but I know I stopped using it because the largeness of my backups meant inconveniently long wifi backup times.

"don’t understand the limitation behind this feature not available in certain countries or why the accounts to be in the same country"
