Apple doesn't want the low end market - they make more than enough money doing what they do and catering to the higher end market. It would be like asking Mercedes to build something to compete against Hyundai.
That reminds me of an example given about design targets:
Which is the better car, A Rolls Royce or a Citroen 2CV?

That was the design brief for the deux-cheveaux and it met it perfectly.
