If he wasn't integral to Apple's success, then why did they fail after he left, and then succeed after he returned? What innovative products has Tim Apple created? Air Pods? The Apple Watch?

Why do we have party faces in tabletops? Why focus our skillsets on salesmenship while others become engineers? He was a great ringleader, he could probably sell people a wet banana peel like it was life changing. Maybe the products themselves aren't as stellar as Jobs made them out to be. Maybe a phone is just a phone and when Merlin isn't there blowing smoke up your ass you can finally see that.
