it's certainly far from trivial to remove the search bar at the top of the home screen. i tried once, it broke android, and i had to reset the entire OS. but, tbf, the entire process did take <1 minute

Install another home screen, probably can be done in a minute. It is much easier than trying to modify anything at all about the iOS or Windows Phone home screens.
why all comparisons here to iOS? they are not in a dominant position. anti-trust laws apply to you if you are in a dominant position.

how iOS handles things are completely irrelevant here.

Because iOS is the major competitor?
so? anti-trust laws don't apply to iOS.

iOS can do exactly what android does without any penalties.

The comparison made was based on standard functionality, not antitrust.
