Apple technical people are sharp and they understand their stuff or the market products very well. One of the interviewers actually asked why my company's (at that time) product is designed in that way. The question is pretty open-ended and I had given it a hard thought and explained in the technical way. At last, I asked back what did he (the interviewer) think and he said that he wasn't sure as well but it seemed my answer technically makes sense.
