Kinda stupid but I’ve been asking ESR if they’d make a case with a removable folio ever since they released this for the iPad mini maybe 4 months ago. They said something like “appreciate the feedback yada yada” then they released this damn case a couple months later and I asked to do the same without the pencil holder, no response. Then they just released that case for the air so I nagged them and got that response. I probably didn’t impact anything but I’ll just tell my grand kids I did.
