Please refer back to my original comment stating the premise of the article. You just described the exact reason why they included this cable in the article (including your phrasing of 'forced to buy'). It's because Apple doesn't offer you any alternative.
So why not properly mention alternatives? What's your point here? Because this basically just confirms this is thinly veiled apple ad.
Strange ad considering they're mocking Apple's high prices and telling you there are cheaper alternatives out there but okay.
Yeah "mockingly" suggesting you all the expensive apple products you don't actually need.
