CEOs deal with higher level stuff (the aforementioned macroeconomics). They don’t give a shit that some chronically online people complain about the design (which is not reflecting on the sales at all).
Apple products still have good design, especially compared to what the competition is putting out. Nobody thinks Apple is coasting or iterating aimlessly outside of niche internet groups. Apple is still making record profits and is still gaining market share.
