I don't disagree, but the market placement of the iphone has nothing to do with the continued poor sales of the mini series every time it's been tried.

And the mini ran for multiple generations and none of them sold well.

Much like the 3.5mm jack, people just cannot admit that it's not a very popular idea. Extremely popular among a very small niche, incredibly unpopular if not actively dispreferred outside of it.
