I feel like he's missing the point of an ecosystem.
It's fine that he only uses a few apps on his phone, and that most other people probably do the same.
The problem is that those "few apps" that most other people use aren't the same "few apps" that he uses.

All the arguments against this are arguments made by people not willing to step out of their own perspective.
1) The particular apps that are critical vary per person.
2) The number of such critical apps vary per person.
3) The weight given to these apps when valuing the iPhone varies per person.
Most importantly - in a system where iPhone is already as good or better (or if you have religion of openness, a little worse) than nearly every other phone - the apps become a huge advantage.
