Yeah, they probably never thought of that and this issue definitely confirms Apple doesn't do quality control.Apple needs to hire better Quality Control/Assurance people who monitor and better test their software and online services/systems. I upgraded to Catalina yesterday and nothing but bugs and problems, as many others are reporting. Please Apple test and monitor your products and services better.
You guys are absolutely hilarious.
Nope that's close but not it. You have to remember that Apple is now first and foremost a marketing company. They don't care one bit about whether the product is ready, useable, or bug free. Sure they would like to have that, but it's not required. They just release on the scheduled date, no matter what.Apple needs to hire better Quality Control/Assurance people who monitor and better test their software and online services/systems.

There is no one at the top that understands how to trade off quality for marketing deadlines. When engineering is not ready to release, its just another day at Apple. Under Jobs someone would be going home, under Cook its just we'll do another update later, the users are not that important.
Of course they thought about it. Judging by the results, however, they probably did not do it.Yeah, they probably never thought of that and this issue definitely confirms Apple doesn't do quality control.
