Er, is that a thing that can happen? I can't see any reason the software would be any less robust just because it's on a phone. In general, it sounds like you're arguing the view that if everyone just reinvented the wheel your way it'd work, but most of those decisions were made for a reason; generally, either for software compatibility, or because just reimplementing Android seems like a questionable value proposition. (And also the usual thing that it's almost all volunteers, so the choice isn't diversity or uniformity, it's diversity or nothing.)
