    If you took the time to expand your vocabulary you wouldn’t need to pay a premium.

      The mini is actually a pretty good buy but it’s hardly how Apple has historically priced things.

      Oddly enough, I’ve always associated claims of being premium in advertising with it actually being garbage.

      I always see premium nowadays as “not the absolute bottom of the barrel”

      • Premium hotel room: not the cupboard in the basement with a single mattress and a broken TV but the next one up. No view or anything though unless you upgrade to a deluxe or higher

      • Premium economy seat on a flight: basically cattle class but with one inch extra leg room and fake leather seat cushions. Still can’t lie down or access better loos like in business or first class

      • Premium spirits: supermarket own-brand spirits but in a glass bottle rather than the super cheap shit they sell in plastic bottles

      Etc…

        Exactly. It’s a variant of “military grade” for those products where it would sound odd.
