That’s how you charge the Apple Mouse. They intentionally designed it so you couldn’t use it while it was charging, because Steve Jobs demanded a cord-free desk. He hated the cords leading to his mouse and keyboard, and didn’t think devices should stay plugged in all the time. So he forced the engineers to design a mouse that couldn’t stay plugged in.
It really is the epitome of Apple’s “I know better than you” design philosophy
The design goal was to avoid people just leaving it plugged in because that is more convenient and that then showing up on photos. Can’t have something as trivial as real life day to day usability ruin your image of minimalism.
What even is that?

The Apple mouse, charging
The charging port is under the mouse, which makes it so that you can’t use while it is charging
Great design !
