What I'm taking away from this is that you have never had a Nexus device, or even used one. * The Nexus devices (during lifetime, usually 1 year less than iPhones) are patched sooner and more often than iOS. * Google Play Services shouldn't be able to patch system libraries or the kernel, that would be a security issue.
