Just because something is required does not make it better. I doubt many Europeans would complain if they didn't have to switch SIM cards at every border.

I'm not saying it's better. I'm saying that it's less painful than many Americans believe, and that if installing the OS yourself with a microSD card became necessary in order to work around the patent system, then it could very well become a reality.
