I agree and get your point.

But localsend has worked well for me. Yes, it requires an app but if we could get vendors to bundle that rather than a boatload of bloatware.

I know that it would be to optimistic to hope for Google.

Spread the word.

Localsend looks neat, but they're absolutely pissing into the wind by saying that it is "Open-source Airdrop" in the title in the Play store.

That's a clearcut case of absolutely willful trademark infringement, and it will not go well for the authors when (not if) Apple happens to cast their gaze in that direction.
