I can do the "death by a thousand cuts" thing to the iPhone just as easily as you can do it to Android. Every user has different priorities.

(You also mentioned Xorg.conf. I have not had one of those for years.)

The flaws in the iPhone are almost always made to improve the user experience. The flaws in Android seem to be made out of incompetence.

Ah, so if the iPhone is flawed that makes all of Android's flaws go away. Finally, I understand! Thanks!

Actually, yes. There's a limit to what a $200 phone can do. If nobody has The Ideal Device, you will have to choose an approximation. How those approximations are flawed vary between devices.
