The Android base wasn't written by Google. Google bought the company that made Android 2 years after it was written. That's a lot of time to create a base system and a lot of time to create cruft.

By now, it's too late to rewrite the whole thing from scratch, hence a new OS https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Fuchsia

That is no excuse. They had 10 years to fix it, and many issues steem from Google's HR to promote doing shinny toys instead of fixing broken stuff.
