It looks to be included. Sadly only supported in a handful fo countries yet.

MS and Google are also continously fined billions by the EU over anti competitve and anti trust practices and, so they don’t get particularly preferential treatment.

The issue here is that Apple only allows devs to let users sign up for their service through Apple. Apple also demands 30% of the subscription fee when doing this. They don’t allow a developer to have a button in the app that allows to sign up through their website, or to mention that you can sign up through a website.

So the devs only have two options aside from not having an iOS app: Eat the cost and lose 30% of income to Apple, for who it’s basically free money. Or charge the extra cost over the normal price to the user.

The EU has rules against this and to do business there you need to comply with those rules. Multi billion companies basically ignore those rules until they get fined, which in most cases is just considered cost of operation. After which they may or may not continue the practice if the fine is lower than what they’d lose by stopping.

I believe there’s even a description of a kind medicine that a woman gets administered after a rape. According to how it’s described it’s kind of vile and not without risk, but it’s old school birth control.

I think it’s more of a “willing to put in a consumer product” issue than that they’re unsolved issues. Other brands don’t have the automatic sales that a product with an Apple logo has at whatever price, even for a “Pro” product that can be more expensive. Meta just can’t sell a $3500 headset no matter how good were to be.

That’s one unfortunate downside of carbon steel. Stainless can be a bit lighter, but needs a different technique to get it to not stick (of which several demonstrations can be found on Youtube.)

I have and still use a few, but for new pans I’ll only get bare metal (stainless or Carbon steel) for new pans. One is a Tefal sauté pan. It’s not too thick aluminium and the coating has developed hair cracks over time and the antistick properties aren’t consistent. The other is a small frying pan by a well regarded (local) company and only got good once I started abusing it because I thought it was a write off. That’s the one I mostly use to fry eggs, but you still need oil and a hot pan to have the egg not stick.

Meanwhile I have a seasoned carbon steel frying pan that is more non-stick than either of them, and a cheap carbon steel wok (under €20) that’s also doing great in the non-stick department. And you can clean either of them with a coarse steel wool without destroying the non-stick properties as long as you’re not too rough. And any damage to the seasoning is easily touched up.

Stainless initially stick for meat, but once the crust develops it will detach itself. And sometimes you want some stickage to develop flavour, for gravies etc., which you then deglaze.
