The problem comes when there's really only two choices.

1. I have an iPhone because it consistently received phonecalls when my 6N and Google Fi did not. 2. I had issues with SMS going where the fuck ever in Android that isn't an issue in iPhone. 3. iMessage's walled garden is slightly preferential because it's where the bulk of my contacts are.

Therefore I'm an Apple fanboy and apologist. I guess.

There's a similar rabid population with gaming (consoles vs. PCMR) that goes away when you have enough funding to just buy both. A lot of rabid fanboyism exists where funds are sparse.
