Because he himself even claimed he wouldn’t moan about the home button if he didn’t have to “deal” with the issue. He’s said he’s solved the issue by keeping his iPad on iOS 10 (avoiding the home button issue) and purchasing an iPhone X (also avoiding the issue.) But yet he still complains, even though he said he wouldn’t. The funny thing is, even if his iPad was on iOS 11 he could still avoid the issue, because on iOS 11 for iPad you barely have to use the home button. It has nearly identical swipe gestures to leave an app or get into the app switcher. He literally just complains for the sake of complaining.
Pointing it out because it further shows he can’t even stick to his own words, and anything he says carries zero weight.
