Why? The suggestion bar doesn’t obstruct typing or reading, it expedites access to spell check and emojis, and if you really hate it, you can disable it.

You're focusing too narrowly. Suggestions in general. Software needs to get out of people's way.

As another commenter has suggested, you can get it out of your way if you take the time and energy to do so. It just requires that you put in effort rather than have it handed to you on a silver platter.

I'm not talking about iphones specically. I meant software in general.
