And if I want the better UI that comes with Apple, why should your stockholm-syndrome keep me in prison with it?

You want the Apple magic? You've got to drink the entire potion. It's all of a piece.

Build it in Android then?

I don't understand this 'I want what they have but I want them to change it for meeee' mindset. Everyone complaining appears to be a power user/hacker. Do it yourself then.

And I want a Siemens oven with a Bosch interface: some things you either make yourself or they are just not in the market.

If you want a fully customizable phone: build your own on Linux

Then buy the phone and accept the fact that life is full of hard choices. In a world filled with actual, important problems that need solving, I utterly fail to see why we should go whining to the government to intervene. The level of infantilism that surfaces whenever this topic comes up on HN astounds me.
