I’m really excited for @camillealston to be moving on to a new chapter but I’ll also miss her...
The iPhone’s focal length is 3.85 mm.
This corresponds to a wide-angle of 29.4 mm (on 35 mm film).
War photographer/journalist James Nachtwey was known for a 24 mm lens look in his pics.
What we consider standard view is 85 mm.
Just saying.

This connects to a mystery about the iPhone. What’s the reason that copy and paste is missing? The underlying operating system is OSX, so it’s obviously supported. It’s a function has been supported from the very beginning of the computer. Perhaps it’s a signal of a new kind of limit being enforced on the digital world.

This is a stupid implication. The iPhone doesn’t have copy-and-paste because it has no universal notion of text selection or context menus in standard text input fields, and designing such features in a graceful, accessible, and non-confusing way on a device with (essentially) no buttons is challenging.
It’s not some DRM conspiracy.
