I was making the complete opposite point, actually. That's why it's not surprising in the slightest. Just like cars, phones, and other tech. The base model moves the most. It's always been that way. This is probably the least surprising headline I've heard about Apple in years.
Except that it doesn’t, and hasn’t been that way in more than a decade. In any given Apple tech lineup the more premium options always sell the most. This is a surprising headline because it actually defies the expectation.
What you said would make more sense if you were comparing laptops across brands, but not when comparing Apple devices.
