It sounds like you just don't like Open Source or Se the value in it? Because that seems to be the cause of what you don't like in Android.
Well, right, actually I said: "...most Android users (like most users everywhere in the consumer marketplace)...".

That's pretty funny, since I've been using and contributing to open source since before it was called "open source" -- the late 1970's to be specific. I was one of the "hobbyists" that little Billy Gates whined about in his famous open letter to the HomeBrew Computer Club in 1976. I've used both open source and FOSS (GNU) system and application software since it became available, and Linux and the various Unixes (NetBSD in particular) are my favorite OSes. So no, I wouldn't say I don't like it or don't see the value in it... :-)
But I also see the value in controlled environments like Apple's walled garden, where things like security updates and bug fixes can be distributed rapidly and thoroughly. The Android environment is much less controlled, and as a result it's less safe -- it's the nature of the business, that's all. Ya pays yer money and ya takes yer choice.
I've made most of my living the past 40+ years with the use of non-open source software, and recognize that making a profit on software is entirely legitimate business. But that doesn't mean I prefer it philosophically over open source. If anything, I tend to believe that software as a product in and of itself is over-valued a lot of the time.
