Apple's take on lossless audio hints at a downward spiral. While it is true that many people don't have hearing, systems or headphones good enough to hear the difference, it does have a lot of importance to those who mix and master, or want to learn those skills accurately.
It is a lot like saying, ah, most people don't know how to punctuate sentences these days, so we intend to stop punctuation ... and then communication gets confused and muddier.
It is about something being the best it can be. I'm really not a fan of the USA trumpeting being 'great again' while eroding standards to the lowest it can get away with. Do better.
