The fact that all three examples you listed are iOS Safari is giving me flashbacks to a previous job where we had way more time spent coming up with ugly hacks to make iOS Safari like something behave closer to a decent browser than we spent on all other areas of new feature development. And we also supported IE11, which was way easier to manage specifically because it didn't straight-up lie to feature-detection like iOS Safari did (and does).

It's probably a bit biased because I develop on Firefox/Chrome (very rare to find difference between the 2) and have to wait for reports/borrow an iOS device to test/debug. There might be similar issues with the aforementioned browsers, but the pain is less visible because it happens during development and I don't remember it. Also most of our users are using iOS devices, so reports for them are more likely. On the other my gut feeling is that iOS is more painful to develop for.
