   I have an idea.   
      
   Let's hide code in the next update release of the iPhone 15 which slows   
   down the processor so that the heat problem won't be noticed as much.   
      
   Then we'll quietly update the release notes and backdate them too, so that   
   it will look like we told them about it all along from the very beginning.   
      
   Maybe no one will notice...
