Another annoying Xcode feature is that building a macOS app with Xcode command line tools (xcodebuild) sometimes complains that my iPhone is locked:

"An error occurred whilst preparing device for development -- Failed to prepare the device for development. Domain: com.apple.dtdevicekit Code: 806 Recovery Suggestion: Please unlock and reconnect the device. The device is locked. Domain: com.apple.dt.MobileDeviceErrorDomain"

When you name a variable "apple" it will directly inform apple and you get a warning for violating their brand.

Oh please. Cue to "Xcode isn't updating the downloadable components list in a timely matter" blog post, and the "Provisioning doesn't work" post.
