Variable aperture adds moving parts, complexity and might push the price above $1,099. Videographers may get a little advantage, but most users won’t see any difference. Or a bigger telephoto aperture. Apple would do better with a 1-inch sensor or greater stabilization. Let’s hope the iPhone 20 skips this trick, too.
