"I don't care if the Maserati owner can't buy these wiper blades, because look how many more GMs and Fords there are on the road every day. I bet the Maserati owner flogs themselves if they accidentally even drive in the rain, how often do you think they replace their wipers?"
iOS market share, and it's luxury brand demeanor, leaves it at great risk. I don't know where that line is, myself, but pinning hopes on iOS preventing a browser monoculture seems increasingly desperate looking at current world figures.
You’re not talking about reaching people that can afford Maseratis versus Fords. More like the people who can afford a car vs people who can barely afford a bicycle.
If I was trying to reach poor people in developing countries the equation may be different.
Being equally facetious. No one cares about a bunch of poor people buying $40 Android phones running 4 year old operating systems...
Look at the countries where iOS market share is above 30% and compare it to per capita GDP
