I don't get the obsession over the crease, things that fold generally have creases. As long as it's not distorting things (which IME it doesn't and is hardly noticeable when in use anyways) it's fine

This is Apple; they value different things than most people… sometimes warranted, results in offering a much better experience, and pushes everything forward (see MagSafe -> Qi2 for recent example), other times they’re just regarded as late adopters. The detraction of visual aesthetics from folding crease is apparently one of such things that they care about.
