Might just be to indicate when it started happening. They could have written “M1” and still cause the same confusion, and I believed that’s what the model is called.
“According to an investigation by one of the affected users, the Apple iMac screen uses a flex cable that must sustain a voltage of around 50 volts when the screen is set to high or maximum brightness. This causes the connector to burn out over time, it was theorized, resulting in short circuits that cause the black lines to appear on the screen”
What does this have to do with “Apple Silicon”? Unless it’s not screen deterioration, but something with graphic output.

Oh. Makes sense it’s a cable. This way they can profit on spare cables and keep the reputation of reliable hardware for their fanbase.
This flex cable is bonded to the LCD and requires a replacement of the whole display assembly
Oh, so they can sell the whole matrix in addition to cable. Even better.
A true marvel of engineering, pushing the boundries of business and technology
Tap for spoiler

Not that kind of cable
Oh. Makes sense it’s Cable. This way they can profit on spare Cables and keep the reputation of New Mutants for their fanbase.
It refers to the affected models, not the cause. The apple silicon iMac was a complete redesign.
