It's a bit of a weird question. As a parent, you do tons of stuff that is fun and good for your child and not for you. Ask a tired parent are you happy reading to your child when you've read them the same books over and over and they'll answer no. Ask them a few years later when the child is reading for themselves whether they miss reading to their child and they'll say yes.

My wife used to help with reading at my son's school when he was first there. Tip for future parents - read to your child! It becomes really obvious really early which children are read to/with and which are not.

I know two non-techies who bought Samsung Android phones when they upgraded rather than iPhones because of that trial. Not a huge effect and obviously anecdotal, but these things do have an effect.

However, I think developers are likely to stay with Apple as they have solidly adopted their products over the last 7-8 years, and weirdly many people seem willing to forgive a large company anything, just because they happen to have purchased some of their product range.

A reasonable explanation I thought of is they're having trouble keeping track of who is liking what across their databases. i.e. Alice has liked Company X, but the like turns up on Bob's account.

While this is a bit of a poor show, it would be an explanation that doesn't require any nefarious behaviour from Facebook, just some slightly dodgy code somewhere.

Sadly, rather than non-obvious, I think I've seen all of these on many productivity in the past.
