If you ignore all the research and development into creating the software then sure every camera is the same.

Both the Pixel and iPhone have AMAZING camera hardware and software that is better than any others in their domain. It’s just that the two are roughly equal except for the exposure time used.

The point of the software is to allow longer exposure time while mitigating the issues that causes. It’s not “just” a longer exposure time.

Yeah, but I think the software differences required for 30 seconds vs 3 minutes is minimal. 30 seconds is still long enough to have to deal with all the issues that would come up with a 3 minute exposure.
