That twitter user seems to be OP, I'm just pointing out that maybe their ire is mistargeted. What one pays for Android/iOS gets them a device with calendar, email client, camera, web browser and not much else. Since one can extend that functionality later by installing more apps — including these that did not even exist at the time of buying the device — the double-dipping is double-edged. The buyer can get more functionality, and the platform creator can get more money.
