They really didn't want you using it as a wired mouse. Because aesthetics.
Aesthetically this looks way dumber than a wired mouse.
So that when other people see that you're using the mouse wirelessly, because apple cares about how others perceive your product that you bought, not you.
I mean, Apple users care more about how they're perceived using an Apple product rather than the cost-to-quality ratio of the product itself. Why wouldn't Apple cater to that? It's like printing money, and Apple users are so fucking cult-ish they fixate on things like green text messages.
The best examples of that, is how apple made headphones that yellow, but only the part thats in your ear, so you see it, but nobody else does, and you get temped to buy new ones.
