I think it depends on the walled garden itself but in a case like iTunes, said garden has been withering without being watered for quite some time. It still works but it can be clunky at times and hasn't received a substantial update for quite some time last I checked. Sometimes it's nice if a device would just adhere to standards. For example, I can simply mount my OnePlus 3 and traverse it like any regular USB on Linux. Meanwhile on Windows and Mac, I have to use a wonky, seemingly unmaintained Android File Transfer program that gets in the way more than it helps!
