Hey look I understand the annoyance but maybe apple is protecting consumers. Im no expert on this but have heard in tje past that its not good for the battery to use a device while its battery is charging.
Yet I do this with chromebook often and the device two years later works like new. But that's a Chromebook with an on average, bigger battery then most low cost phones/mouee.
Modern devices have little logic chips determining how and when they charge. If it's bad for the battery to keep charging when full it's trivial to design it to just, not.
