We’re still not sure if it was a glitch, an “oops” or an intentional snub

My vote, since it's Apple: "intentional snub"

Exactly. It was an intentional snub. Ever watch the Apple smarmy commercials all complete with diversity of races and lesbian/gay/trans freaks and the only thing you rarely see is white old men. They have the commercials on youtube but oddly enough they disable people from leaving comments.
