I agree that Apple is not obligated to make a larger iPhone, but I can't see them turning away from something that would just rake in more profits for them. Unless, of course, there's something I'm missing an having two iPhones (a large one and a small one) is unprofitable.
Not only is the iPhone the biggest selling smartphone on the planet, it continues to outsell smartphones that are arguably more technically advanced. Why is that? Does that prove that a bigger size and better specs are the key to smartphone success? Nope. That can't be it. Does it mean that if a company floods the market with Smartphones in various sizes and various modifications to the operating systems it will make that company the most successful? Nope. That can't be it. If Apple was in need of profits and was arguably struggling like HTC is at the moment then they probably would consider moving away from their current roadmap, but they are not in dire straits and thus, they don't have to alter their strategy. Finally, having two smartphone sizes from Apple could very well be profitable, but currently, not having two is not unprofitable to them.
