Would be nice to quit chapter11 as soon as possible ... judges should be apply for more important things in the U.S. - marginalia

Apple is wanting quite a lot - have a look to the story of LQMT and Apple ... and Apple has a staying power for their ideas.
What you're refering to is probably the design, sales or tech department of Apple but never ever the finance and project team.
Come on ... Apple won't throw away their own rules for just one asset where no one knows whether the market is ready for sapphire screens on mobile phones because competitors are not sleeping anymore ...
Big point for Apple in the past was always the step in front (exclusiveness).
I don't know whether Apple or anyone else will be the 1st provider of sapphire screens but finally with this issue right now (GTATQ the one and only supplier for furnaces and tech-know-how) in chapter11 process the step in front for Apple will be away from the table. They need other assets to be no.1!
