But current android phones support usb otg, right? If I need access to a lot of storage for media, I'll just put it into a usb stick and plug it on the phone when I need it. Sure it's not as convenient has having accessible 24/7 on the phone, but it's not like I'm going to watch movies often on the phone, only occasionally on long trip.

I did not mention movies once. I said music and podcasts that I use daily. My routine would look like following:

1. Get in car, plug in power and aux cable

2. Press play on (playlist or podcast)

3. Press start navigation on google maps

I'm glad that storage isn't a limitation for your use case, but for me they would be a major inconvenience that I can happily avoid by using an Android with an SD card
