> iPhones and iPads are a platform, just like the PlayStation, Xbox, or Nintendo Switch etc.

Thank you for perfectly illustrating my point. : Folks are thinking of Apple like it's just a video game console, when the more apt comparison is Comcast or AT&T.

Even if you think of it as a gaming platform (which it isn't)... there's Nintendo, Playstation, Xbox, PC, Mac, Steam (also on PC and Mac, but separate to itself)... I might have missed some niche platforms. As opposed to mobile, which is Apple and Android.
