You'd be surprised how many Apple engineers are fixing many bugs, of this caliber, on a semi-regular basis.

That "Human Hours Wasted" is not just sitting there because engineers don't care about it, it's because there are many many other opportunities to save similar amounts of time. Crashes waste time, perf bugs waste time -- and security bugs are much worse.

I really doubt everyone or even a tiny fraction of people at Apple are working on opportunities to save more time than fixing the repeated autocorrect issue. It affects everyone and it's been a meme since forever.

I actually think most security bugs have very low impact unfortunately
