It's not going to keep me up at night, but it makes me angry. So either A: It was an intentional design and Apple are being dicks by using vendor lock-in in an exceptionally dumb way or B: The developers choose to switch the mic port based on some requirement that turned out the be Apple specific, in which case they're incompetent. The total kick in the balls is that other non-Apple TRRS devices like an iRigPre (or even other headphones with *mics, splitter cables, etc) won't be seen as "real" line-input devices and the audio IN will remain in internal mode. So when you plug in wired Earpods (white apple brand ones with a microphone that sounds like the loose change rattling in your pocket) then the audio IN settings change from internal to external, just like it should.
The 2015 MBP 100% has TRRS based audio IN, the problem is that the switching mechanism for the port is tied to the Apple AHJ/CTIA proprietary "standard".
