I think the article is giberish because of the marketing feel good about ourselves nonsense: Picture a person who wears a kravat, not sure what a kravat is? See! Apple wont lose their shirt by being unable to compete with the 4 times larger Android marketplace and whatever circuses it spins off. Those markets will be dominated by players like Huawei and will inevitably be putting compatibility pressure on Apple's 20% over time.
Also, Rolls Royce is a little footnote in a more successful company with a larger demographic today which is itself not all that great. That Apple still will have fans is more likely to get them to jump in that shrinking hole of past prestige based pricing like they did for the 1990s.
