No. The jeering was because Android Dev's didnt deal with these issues and so the apps were just blown up in size, and not responsive.

That applied to tablet apps only, which Android devs justifiably ignored. Android devs never had the luxury of assuming devices were of any particular point size, which is something iOS devs did habitually until now.

Perhaps that 'justifiable' ignoring of tablet apps by Android devs is what led to the total failure of Android tablets.
