See, you're assuming that this would have taken time and money to develop. Usb3 is ubiquitous at this point, it probably doesn't even cost any more to include, or if it does, it's a trivial amount. This isn't apple "not adding a feature" this is apple purposely removing features to push people to the more expensive versions
