The other manufacturers don't have any alternative but to stay with Google despite Motorola and the tightening noose of Play Services.

Play Services is an absolute win for consumers. How is it a noose for manufacturers?
It progressively reduces their control over the products they make and hands that ever more over to Google.
Where control means staying with Android 2.3.x far past the useful life of the product, I'm inclined to side with Google.
