[...]> a. The $35 phone runs more software functionality than a $1000
iPhone.

Depends on how you define "software functionality". iOS allows apps to
bind ports below 1024 without root access in contrast to Android. All
popular apps like messengers, banking, social media stuff, navigation,
media players, streaming, shopping etc. are usually available for iOS
and Android likewise since no big company can afford not to support both
platforms. Recently Apple was also forced to allow third-party app
stores - it may not be as flexible as Android which allows even to
download malware from any website and install it, but it's a step to
more flexibility nevertheless.

Also a lot of software available for Android phones is just garbage.
Just counting the number of available apps in the respective app stores
makes little sense. Having millions of games or stupid apps which just
got created to make money with ads or "in-app purchases" is not an
advantage on it's own.

> b. The promised support for competing Android flagships is 40% longer.

Is it? Google provides 7 years of updates for the Pixel 10 Pro. Apple
supports iPhones also around 7 years - that's why you can still get
updates for the iPhone 11 Pro which was released 6 years ago in 2019.
