> It boils down to the fact that iPhone is a pervasive computing device and similar to a "public good" should be regulated tightly.

Extremely authoritarian / communist take.

A $1000 luxury phone is not a "public good" just because many have FOMO and feel like they need one. There are many cheap alternative Androids that are just as good with virtually identical features. Nor is it a device that is absolutely necessary to function in society, like say other real public goods like running water or electricity.
