Foxconn doesn’t design the phone they build it. I’m a mechanical design engineer with 20 years experience, that has been to many similar factories of large contract manufacturers across china and several other countries for my products, where we were teaching them and fixing the loads of issues in their manufacturing process. We often also designed the fixtures and tools for manufacturing too. I wager strongly you don’t know what you’re talking about

You were teaching them, provided them the tools and they still refuse to stay the cheap uneducated labour you hoped to get. Hmmmm

I wager strongly that you DO know what you're taking about, but in a very specific narrowband.

My complaints are that we had to do everything for them. Not that they refused to stay cheap and uneducated, but you push your agenda. Also they would lie and forge data and cheat at everything. Part of the reason that company doesn’t do business with china anymore. Now in another job where everything is made in the US and Germany where those issues don’t exist and it’s much better.
