I originally had a circle, with the phone in the center, and the apps
ringed around it in two concentric circles, most important apps and folders
in the inside.

But I like the pyramid because it's the universal building block with the
most-often used apps on top.

Let's see what *your* desktop looks like.

There are so many things you "just can't do" on the more primitive iOS.

One of them is the ability to put app icons anywhere you like. 
That's like being stuck in the stone age of desktop guis.

Another thing you can't do on the primitive iOS is put apps icons in
multiple places. Again, you're stuck in the stone age.

And, another thing you have to do in the primitive iOS is build your own
App Drawer app from scratch.

Modern operating system launchers have all that, and (far) more.
On iOS, you "just can't do it".

You see?
Do you see how you completely missed the point?

It's *you* who has the one-button-mouse mentality.

You can't see any other way of doing things but the one-button-mouse way
that Apple Marketing sees fit to provide to you.

Yet, you don't even realize that if we wanted to set up our systems the way
you set up yours, we could. We can set them up *any* way we like.

You see, we have a multi-button-mouse mentality.
You are forever stuck in the rigid primitive one-button-mouse world.

You even see having the ability of any solution as a drawback!
That's proof positive you're stuck in the primitive one-button-mouse
mentality!

As a whole, iOS users can think in only single-vector solutions.

And, when they see a multi-vector solution - they ridiculously deprecate
it, even though it can do everything they can do - and far (far) more.

Heh heh ... I'm trying really hard not to say how stupid you sound in your
every breath.

I should be more gentle with you so I will only mention that, as above, we
can do *everything* you can do, and more. 

It's trivial for us to get rid of the AdID. 
You can't do it.

Not only that, but you claim there are little green monsters among us
(since you live in fear) and then when I say show me where you get that
idea, you repeat your made-up claim that the little green monsters are
among us.

You provide zero proof of these little green monsters, whereas I showed
exactly how to eliminate them.

The reason you repeat your entirely made-up claim about the little green
monsters among us is simply that you can't do it. 

You can't eliminate the Appleware spy id. 
We can.
