What I’m trying to explain is that Apple can review testimony by any expert witness summoned in this case to figure out how the FBI was able to access this phone and plug the hole. The technology may have moved on and later models may not be susceptible to this exploit, but I would imagine that they’ll still want to fix it.

Okay, but from what i've read about how they did it, I very much doubt that Apple can fix it with a software update, and I just don't see them doing a hardware update on an older version of phone. Why bother?
