Is there an answer to that question that would make these practices reasonable? (while also being plausibly true)

You were already provided with examples in this comment thread:

Non-apple watches, for instance, can’t use GPS from an iPhone or cause it to emit sound to local lost phones, despite being previously able to, demonstrating no technical limitations just a walled-garden limitation

In what way is a device you’ve purchase and paired with your phone, requesting that the phone it’s paired to make a noise; a security flaw/issue?

Are you high?

Tracking?

Explain to me how you would perform any sort of tracking via a secured communication between two devices: ‘hey phone, can you beep once’ ‘sure’ beep.

Literally everything that’s not manufactured and sold by Apple.

That makes no sense.

We aren’t talking about two phones paired with each other, were talking about a pair of headphones or a smart watch, causing the phone it’s linked to to make a sound. Nothing more.

There is absolutely 0 opportunity to acquire a location from that.

Beyond that; apple products, specifically airpods and apple’s smart watch, have these abilities.

Why would it be a security flaw to allow an Apple manufactured device to perform these functions, but not a third party device, utilizing the exact same implementations?

Try again.

God damnit, I knew that… It just wouldn’t come to me
