Yep, unfortunately they probably foods know this less than perfect replacement would be the result, but they aren't going to tell you that exactly because of what you said here. If you knew they would use 3rd party parts without full feature compatibility instead of genuine apple parts you would have taken the extra time to go through apple certified repairs, and you definitely would not have paid more for these 3rd party parts. Unfortunately you don't know what you don't know until you learn about it.

Anker PowerWave accessories are a good alternative to Apple MagSafe, but you should keep an eye on overheating. It’s a common problem with most third-party magsafe chargers. iPhone stops charging when it’s too hot.

Only apple fans and tech enthusiasts would know that. The average consumer still often thinks 'a phone is a phone' and is unaware of the anti tamper measures some companies like apple use to make 3rd party repairs more difficult.
