I think you're missing Xion's point and taking the opportunity to complain about a pet peeve you have with the platform.

Personally, I couldn't agree more with what he's saying. Users of other platforms (like Android) have had the ability for apps to interoperate (with intents, for example) since the very beginning, and IOS is dramatically behind in this regard.

My point is that, having used both, I don't miss the interoperability that Android offers via intents. It sounds good on paper but in practice it just gave me meaningless choices. But the ability to upgrade the keyboard was huge.

Just like for you upgrading the keyboard was huge, for me upgrading the browser was huge.

The fact that the platform encourages this sort of thing is key.
