iPhone Air was almost portless, but concerns about EU regulations prevented it
While magsafe charging is great - it is slow. Further I prefer to use iMazing for backup and copying photographs to external drives rather than iCloud. By limiting iPhone port to charge only it might be an effort to ensure most people use iCloud for all storage and backup. I hope that future software will expand AirDrop to allow the iphone to be fully mounted on the Mac as an external device to better navigate the file system as you can with iMazing.

Everyone is a loser in the Apple Intelligence race
Apple has been distracted lately. Project Titan took about $10 billion over multiple years and a staff of about 2,000 people. Apple Vision has real promise and AI will be a significant part of its equation. We have seen this with Siri - Apple had the best implementation then let that languish. So Apple needs to make a real commitment to Apple Intelligence instead of just making it just another Apple Newton. As we know, Siri will rely partly on ChatGPT - nothing wrong with incorporating a proven product, but Titan seems like the most recent distraction to have jeopardized Apple's leadership. The World Wide Develpers Meeting should be interesting!
