>why not just release at least one phone that is developer friendly?

Google and Apple want to control their users, they don't want to give you an open phone. Instead have a look at Librem 5 and Pinephone, which run GNU/Linux.

In a way, but not for your reasons, they want to create mass market devices that if you give one to your grandma, little nephew can twist their arm for the root password to install this totally harmless fun app

Apple realised that far more than google imho

So include a button that rolls back the OS to yesterday? You are inventing a dire issue that does not exist or has a clear, proven solution.
