It's all a balance of QoL features we personally want. I heavily enjoy the features and hardware of Apple. Yes, there are downsides. I left my vast Google ecosystem for Apple, not because Apple is perfect, but because they appeared better. Sure, I could throw away my watch, change to linux, get a flip phone (because I don't want to use hand-downs from Google's OS), but Apple is where I chose to draw my line between privacy and convenience.
