    More speed is more heat is more battery wear.

    Nobody opts out and now Apple is bad because batteries age faster (even though it's the same on other phones).

    Not the best idea.

    I know Samsung and pixel both have this option, and I would be surprised if other major manufacturers didn't. While people have their grievances with them, I've never heard anyone complain about overall battery lifetime.

    If that is an actual concern people have then they can just turn it off by default

    I have an iPhone 16 and can just from dead to close to 50% in just about half an hour. Is your charger at least 30 watts and supports USB-PD? (Iโ€™m using a 65w charger, but remember reading somewhere the iPhone only uses 30w or a bit more)

    MagSafe fast charging is only 25w, so charging by cable with a high enough wattage charger is always faster for me.
