Snow Leopard was a goddamn mess, everyone forgets. Yeah, 10.6.8 was rock solid. In 10.6.0 there was a bug that erased your user folder if you logged into the guest account. It was NOT a good release at the start.
Snow Leopard even happened in the first place because Apple's A team was busy with iPhone, and iPhone has priority.
You will see that during this era Mac OS X was relegated to stepchild status and received far fewer support.
All this glory is just Steve Jobs selling it to us as a good thing! In the end it worked out, but it was more incidental and a collateral of the iPhone than the public memory likes to admit.
