iOS/iPadOS 26: Why is it necessary for text entry fields to bulge and luminesce every single time I touch them? What is the benefit to the user here?

I thought maybe it was something to do with Apple Intelligence, so I turned it off. And the luminous bulging persisted.

DESCRIPTION: A space for anyone who uses Apple products, appreciates what they get right, and wants to talk plainly about what they don’t. This is a friendly place for healthy criticism. You don’t have to love the company. You don’t have to hate it either. If you want honest discussion about Apple hardware, software, ecosystem choices, design decisions, frustrations, or pleasant surprises, you’re welcome here.

RULES: This is a place for:

Thoughtful critique, real-world experience, and respectful disagreement
Sharing tips, solutions, workarounds, and overlooked features
Questioning decisions without turning everything into a complaint thread
Welcoming users at any level of experience or enthusiasm

This is not a place for:

Trolling, pile-ons, or knee-jerk negativity
Brand loyalty debates
Personal attacks, sarcasm aimed at other users, or rhetorical grandstanding
Gatekeeping based on technical skill, platform history, or product ownership
Derogatory references to cults or fanboyism. I don’t actually believe those things really exist anymore. If you wanna talk about them in a historical context, that’s totally fine.

You use Apple. You think about it. (Maybe you think different). That’s all it takes to participate here.
