I have to wonder if these problems were an oversight on Apple's part or if designed that way on purpose to increase sales on parts that will be needed by future Apple Pencil customers

The apple pen has no latency when writing and the ipad pro has a really good battery life and no overheat problem

No glitches no problems.

it is great, latency is no problem, but charging it leaves it vulnerable to damage (from ipad)

Never had a problem with this and would recommend for specially artists and students

I have a surface pro 3...although the surface pen works great the battery life of the surface pro computer is not good after a year of usage it only last for about 2-3 hours... and the device freezes sometime and need to restart the app and there is a overheat problem, etc

If your Apple Pencil does not work on a iPad Pro installed iOS 10.3, you may be seeing the same problem as mine.
