Im not generally a conspiracy theorist, but it always seems like I start to get disappointed with my iPhone when the new one is released.
Programmed bug or consumer desire for the next new thing?
What say you, sir/madam?

I work in IT - I can explain this to an extent. The new updates that come out are optimized really poorly for older gen phones, i'm assuming its partially intentional to make you want to upgrade. Try using a iPhone 5 or 4, they are trash with the updated OS updates, constant app crashes, ect.
Now what really makes me mad about iPhones is that the batteries are set up to only take X amount of charges, the more you charge an iPhone, the more it actually jacks your battery up, eventually the battery will die out, they make replacing batteries and the front glass so expensive that you have to upgrade just based on that, the front glass they intentionally make extremely difficult to remove to force you to go get a new phone.

Geez. I habitually plug my iPhone in over night every night even though it usually doesn't get too low over the course of the day. Guess I'll stop doing that.
iPhone 8 isn't coming out until Fall though. A bug planted now to make your iPhone turn to crap would point the consumer to a Samsung S8 released last week.

You must mean the iPhone 7S. The iPhone 8 will come out in 2018.
