Yeah, the complexity comparison of a DOT-legal EV to smartphone is idiotic.

There has been some improvement over ICEs though, at least in the precision-machined parts and assemblies department.

But a smartphone is analogous to the infotainment display in a modern car. There's still a lot of car attached to that. I think many people commenting on this don't have the slightest clue what the average automobile is composed of beyond the engine, interior, exterior, and wheels.
