It does.
Usually engineering and R&D sees these things, but they are too scared to contradict ambitious timelines set up by management.
It does. But what is hot to me is different than what is hot to my wife. My 11 pro gets really hot if you fast charge it.
I can assure you it did, they just hoped no one would notice
They just figured oh well it works well in Cupertino. They omitted the fact that Cupertino doesn’t get super hot, ever.

People have used it in very temperate areas and it has turned into a small furnace.
The controlling variable is almost certainly not ambient temperature.
