It's code for software. It can literally be rewritten to do anything the hardware is capable of. Maybe it doesn't allow for slight iterative updates that would be cheaper, but the code definitely allows them to redo it to whatever pie in sky pilot fantasy of hyperlinked pdfs pilots can dream up. Maybe we are going about it the wrong way. Maybe we should tell them we want ChatGPT ai incorporated into M+ and to filter all relevant flight plan data into the first page and to load FD Pro with taxiway closures already marked through. Look at Flight Pulse that is actually good. It has a whole new feature set. They can't change where stuff is on a tile or implement filtering techniques that are already kind of in the app and obviously already exist in the pdf version? Did they somehow manage to use an obsolete code base where everyone that knows it well is dead already? Is it code based on the Windows phone or Zune? If they don't change it it's because they just don't feel like it, or it will be nebulously "expensive." Of course they will blame the code. It's not like it has to be incorporated into the flight systems of the airplanes.
