You always make the comparison to the lack of full support (your words) in
iOS and the dependence on random updates. Project mainline is effectively
no better. Doesn't matter whether it's forever or not. 

> Do you seriously think I claimed Project Mainline was the entire release?

Not since I explained in detail the difference to you last week. I can tell
when you learn something despite your dogma. First, you ignore and snip
what was stated. Then a few days later you change your assertions without
acknowledging it. 

This is the first time you've ever made the distinction between full
releases (and therefore full support) and project mainline. You're welcome.

lol. Yet another lie. You can't help yourself can't you?

This demonstrates that within two months the most recent version becomes
the dominant version.

Whereas for Android it takes 8-9 months.

As explained to you many, many times you cannot make absolute statements
based on that data alone. It's also notable you snipped my response
highlighting your inability to count.

Prior to last year nor did any android manufacturer meaning that most users
had to junk their phones after 2-3 years. Even for the flagship iphone
clones costing hundreds. *That's* why google instigated project mainline;
to provide life support to dying phones and stem the drift to Apple. 

Even without a written guarantee at the time Apple users knew they would
get at least five years support.

Why do you keep doing this? It's like shooting fish in the barrel. 

Your claim of "monolithic" iOS updates is false. Your persistent use of
CISA as evidence for your claims is at best weak and, given you've been
told, more likely ignorant.

Your personal attacks are pathetic.
