So everyone would use iPhones or dumb phones? I doubt that. There is little reason to think that is exactly what would have ended up happening if Android never had existed.

No, not everyone.

Just like not everyone ran Windows.

But, yes, I do believe that in a world without Android enough people would currently be using iPhones for it to be an antitrust matter, just as Windows was for desktop OSes in the 90s.
