The difference is it's intuitive to discover. Once you discover this does something here, you start wondering where else could this happen? You might wonder if you can adjust the iPhone flashlight brightness. For me it was intuitive to long-press the icon in control center to find more options and I was delighted to discover that's exactly how it works.

Those little moments of delight and synergy are why I choose the apple ecosystem.

Half the time it does something, I don't know what I did, and I'm in a rush and so instead of sitting down and having a happy little moment I'm annoyed at having it do some unexpected, unrepeatable thing.

I have never found that the case in iOS. Anything I click / do unexpectedly I can reliably repeat the steps 99% of the time, it's why I prefer iOS over Android with apps that can modify the OS.
