Adopt an standardized OS would push manufacturers out of business.

They don't want to be recognized as another android phone, because then consumers would simply move tho the cheapest capable ( or faster, or better camera) android phone.

My thought is that Samsung need that it's phones be seen as a totally ( and worth) product that Moto X. So they can monetize on this perceived value.

I don't think they'll be able to hold off comodization of the handset market much longer. Then again: Apple is doing well on x86 (laptops). We'll see.
