  It's never the case of "all other things being equal". The GP was saying that he switched from Apple to Android - presumably because there was a relevant difference between the two - but he's considering switching back to have a feature that he'll never use. Of course there is always an appeal in the numbers. I'd go for a 40MP camera instead of a 20MP one - who cares if the quality of the lens is such that there is no difference beyond 10MP. It's marketing. It's curious how people so wary of being observed or exploited make themselves so prone to basic manipulation by entities who want to get their money.

    ah, i'm thinking more of something like WEP vs WPA2 - like, why the heck would i want to downgrade my crypto? I agree there may be other reasons the user switched, but maybe they switched to android because they believed it to be more secure? Or maybe the user wants to vote with their wallet for the company they see as most in support of security/privacy. I do agree though, switching for a feature you are unlikely to use is silly, but i think there are definitely reasons enough to make a switch like that from a 'voting with your wallet' type standpoint
