> you think you know better than the marketplace about what people want

For reason, otherwise grown up people still believes there's a fantasyland “market” that automatically adapts to what consumers want.

I'm afraid to inform you that Santa ain't real, it's your parents who bring you gifts for Christmas no matter what you dreamed about, and it's the companies product department who brings you the features that end up in your phone, no matter what the consumers really want.

Nobody ever asked for uninstallable bloatware, yet they are in every phone. Nobody asked for a new redesign that makes you wonder where the damn button you want is now located. And so on.
