Apple should be able to make any connector it wants to make.
Even one which is designed specifically to prevent interaction.

If people would just stick only to Apple products, they'd be fine
as there's no need for interoperability if you buy only Apple product.

As Tim Cook openly said, "Buy your mom an iPhone" if you want your device 
to work with another company's products. It's all Apple around here.

So it shouldn't matter if nobody else uses Apple's connector.
It's a free and openly competitive world market, isn't it?
