They count "only 11 of 38 apps" are from google, however that's a half-truth. Most of those DEPEND on some proprietary google app that's not part of AOSP. Google has also consistently abandoned functionality from AOSP and added them to some proprietary Google app (eg: mail -> gmail, etc). Android is also the only of the three mentioned OS that doesn't support open standards out of the box: CalDAV (calendar/reminders/todos), CardDAV(contacts), IMAPS(email), etc. While their core is FLOSS, I then need to buy some app to sync my contacts, etc, which kind of defeats the whole purpose.
