There is no reason to do this. If you want to apply the algorithms and Iphone uses, simply take a burst and post process later for HDR or whatever. I remember being in middle school and messing around with Hugin and my Minolta bridge camera…
People value quick shots/edits and don’t care about quality or editing things later don’t mind an iPhone doing all this behind the scene - but it is irreversible. The sort of error in the article would drive myself and other photographers up the wall.
Also, an Iphone has a CPU and ISP that outclass desktops from only a few years ago - camera manufacturers simply don’t have the same compute available.
On the other hand, some brands do provide interesting computational photography in their cameras at the very high end. Panasonic mirrorless full frame cameras have a pixel shift mode for super res/no bayer interpolation, with some ability to fix motion between steps. Phase One has frame averaging and dual exposure in their IQ4 digital backs, for sequential capture into a single frame and super high dynamic range respectively.
