Yes this is precisely how I feel. I have spent days trying to get a decent development platform (can't remember how I got breakpoints to hit, I think after upgrading to 1.4 things stopped working) so I have completely given up. I can really see why development is typically iOS first and then Android second. And I say this having written Android applications in Java (no problems there really) and now getting my feet wet in iOS with Swift/ObjC. I agree with you about the NDK being a thing they never wanted to support. You can see this in the documentation where they state that applications should be written in Java for Android, first and foremost. But given that the underlying libraries can be compiled under Windows, OSX, iOS etc it makes sense to have a C++ system for Android too. It's a pity that it's such a complete mess, and is at best a complete joke. I really am giving up on it.
