It’s easier because they decided to not have any variation in their dull products. Pro, max, turbo, and superextra suffixes cover all the differences in a year’s product portfolio.
Wouldn’t work for monitors. If Apple puts out one monitor into each product line every 2-3 years, Dell for example could have 3-4 different 27s out every year - there could be a 1080p, a 1440p and a 2160p that all share the same physical size and release year.
Even Apple isn’t great with that. They often have different models for earlier and later in the year, various variants of each size, and little distinguishing features other than model number- same as those monitors.
It just isn’t as visible on their products as much, because they at least try to make it more simple for consumers.but monitors often have model line, size, and resolution short hand to differentiate as well.

Except for the M series ultra and max chips, I can never remember which is the higher spec
They’re also not perfect:
I believe the Apple pencil pro > Apple pencil (USB-c) > Apple pencil (2th gen) > Apple pencil, but it’s very unclear IMO.

Talk about “bone apple teeth” 😅
