Actually you can. One is comparing the software, and the other is comparing the hardware.

That's not what most people have in mind when they talk about Android vs. iPhone (not IOS!) and you know it.

What does it say about people who have to tweak numbers to get the results they want to be true?

But there's no such thing as "Android hardware". There's hardware that runs Android. This hardware is of varying quality. It's not meaningful to lump all of that hardware together.

But if you're talking about software OS marketshare, it is meaningful to talk about Android as a whole.
