That isnt how it works. We may have preferred others if they had been better, we were not given that option. I would prefer if windows phones existed as an alternative but they had very limited third party support.
Consumers couldnt take a phone where all their apps would not work.

Growing an ecosystem takes time. I’ve been using open source software since 1980s. Now I can use open source on tablets and phones. All my apps work because they’re open source.
The ecosystem would be now even better if more people would have put their choices that way. They didn’t. That was a choice, whether they realized it or not.
