Remember these are the same engineers who put the Magic Mouse charging port on the bottom, making the mouse unusable while you charge it

Even worse, that was done intentionally. They wanted to prevent retail stores from leaving them plugged in at all times.

That's not true at all. Apple likes minimalism, and putting ports and buttons where you can't see them adds to the aesthetic.

I get that, but it doesn't really make sense with a mouse as I pretty much never see the front of it as it's always ahead of me. The only person who would see it would be if someone were to be sat opposite.
