What a disaster. Hate to be “that guy” but this is the very thing Steve was against when he came back. The worst thing you can do is confuse the heck out of your customer.

“What pencil do I need?”

That depends, can I see your iPad or do you have the serial number?

Total failure.

Ugh...I'm planning on finally upgrading from my 2018 11" iPad Pro to the 13" M2 iPad Air, but my Apple Pencil 2 won't work with the newer iPad and I'll need to also get an Apple Pencil Pro? So my $800 new iPad just became a $930 iPad?

Not cool.
