So you would not want to be able to easily just plug in your phone into the PC and transfer files normally without having to install iTunes etc. (and even that can't do it)?

You would not want to automate certain things? (Like if you are on work wifi, automatically mute phone for example)

You wouldn't want to be able to get OBD II data from your car through your phone?

Wouldn't you want to be able to use Firefox with a firefox engine and not safari webkit?

and and and

All these are possible with stock android. Not even talking about hacky customizations.

No, I really don't have a need to transfer the proverbial "files" straight from my PC to my iphone. I don't need it to be a USB stick. I like that itunes manages my phone. And I have my icloud documents in my phone anyways in case I need them, which I never have.
