On Android I have a 7 icon dock (3 are folders of each <=4 apps) and swipe up for an alphabetical list.

The alphabetical list is my main criterion, I don't think anything beats it. The dock is just a handy shortcut to a few common things, but even the coach tracking app I use every working morning and most of those afternoons isn't in there (that's much more frequently than I use some that are) and it's fine.

Grid of all app icons was designed at a time when 'apps' were newNd nobody had many.

I don't have many, I only recently got 'smartphone' again, but still more than I care to spread over a grid.

(The only annoyance is some daftly named apps, like 'Credit Card' instead of '<Provider> Credit' or something.)
