...and we don't need to hear kvetching about self-inflicted punishment. If it was 'amazing' on Android and is 'dreadful' on iOS the solution seems clear.

Who cares about privacy and security postures? I'd rather have real privacy and security, never mind any posturing done by vendors whom have shown not to be trustworthy anyway.
Mentioning something iOS together with software freedom is as oxymoronic as it gets. There is no software freedom on iOS, you accept what you're offered and say thank you Sir may I have another [1]. Complaining about these well-known restrictions while passive-aggressively defending your choice does not make any sense.
