Exactly correct. One would think that a vERy sMARt company like Apple would recognize the huge risk in setting up a whole new manufacturing chain, but apparently not.
Now, if Apple were a proper mafia-based corporation, they'd settle this problem with a visit to D.C. followed by a bunch of barrels dumped into the Potomac.

Comment Re:Infrared is false color at best. (Score 2) 20

Those of us in the business have no problem referring to IR (or UV for that matter) wavelengths as "colors."

For that matter, most "colors" that we trichromats sense are the result of a combination of incoming wavelengths. I see no reason why we can't identify an HSV colorspace for some range of NIR wavelengths.

I strongly suspect these researchers used the same methodology that was used successfully in WW2 to estimate the total number of German tanks based on the serial numbers of ones that had been captured or destroyed.
Math works.
