What is the split between upper steel models and lower price aluminium models in that middle tier?

seems odd not to break out those 2 as separate given gap in pricing

AVP wasn’t a hit. 

It wasn't meant to be "a hit." It was a developer tool. 

Proof?

There was only screens being made to produce about 400,000 units. Take out of that a percentage for manufacturing errors and replacement on a complex first gen product and they never had enough stock to every satisfy the media metric of an Apple hit. 

The obvious way for Apple to make additional revenue is allowing third party upselling from the basic functionality by allowing them to run custom and tuned models on Apples hardware in return for a cut of subscription.

You know basically the same model that has driven massive hardware sales and AppStore revenue for over a decade. 

Despite no evidence of “weak sales” you still open with that line. So why shouldn’t we just take everything after that as stock manipulation?

Top 5 if you need to hold the mouse, great for games but not a lot else. 
If you like a puck mouse, everyone is functionally inferior to the magic mouse.
I'd add a Windows surface mouse in before a couple of these. for professional use.
