More speed is more heat is more battery wear.
Ok so make it an option
Nobody opts out and now Apple is bad because batteries age faster (even though it's the same on other phones).
Not the best idea.
I know Samsung and pixel both have this option, and I would be surprised if other major manufacturers didn't. While people have their grievances with them, I've never heard anyone complain about overall battery lifetime.
If that is an actual concern people have then they can just turn it off by default
People complain extra about anything Apple does.
I don't care what people have to say about apple
Why is making it an option with the default set to off worse than what they have now (slow charging with no option)?
