They are comparing a global economy (Apps) to a local US market.
What's the profit of global Hollywood sales?
Apple repeatedly said they would manufacture in the US should it be able to man those plants and that is not the case right now. There's no manufacturing plant in the US that would be able to sustain the volume requirements.
Tim Cook often commented on this. Best they could do for now was to build Mac Pros in US. It's a much smaller volume.

Imbecile. Learn history. And have the balls to sign your post rather than surrendering to anonymous coward posting and making comments.
Just a note regarding "can view twelve targets at once".
That's just not the point of a telescope array; rather the contrary. The point is to utilise large number of smaller telescopes to point at the same object to gather more light. This simulates a larger mirror minus the greater atmospheric distorsion they provide. Anything above 12" gets really finicky about distorsion, requiring lasers to help compensate: the laser is used to compare the projected point in the upper atmosphere in order to compensate using adaptive optics. All that is terribly expensive.
The real advancement is in software where all of the (in this case 12) telescopes in the array, are composited into a single image of greater accuracy & resolution.
I program, therefore I am.
