Isn't this true of any platform? Apple can (and does) pull the rug out at any time. Microsoft has a history of being responsive to devs, but they're certainly not immune from bugs. And Linux and Android are so fragmented in hardware and software, that all bets are off when it comes to user experience. (I'm aware that this is a sweeping generalization.)
Ultimately you have to factor in not only the quality of the platform, but also the responsiveness of the company and devs who maintain the platform. And the good news is, Google and Mozilla are usually pretty responsive. But platforms have to move slow to prevent destabilizing their other citizens, and sometimes your project gets caught in the middle. So it goes.
