When a reviewer or journalist reaches out to companies, they usually get a response from someone that has no technical knowledge or insight on future products or changes, unless the inquiry is very serious and then it gets forwarded internally.

And that’s on them, not on journalists or consumers. It’s their job to have messaging in line with the technical side of the business.

Hell, if a PR team is making such explicitly stated messaging without consulting with engineering, it’s frankly a disfuncional corporate PR inventing stuff on the spot. We should take them at their word and act accordingly. Eat the damn negative PR from a damn anti-consumerist response. They could have stated it differently if they wanted some margin of interpretation.
