Some whataboutisms are beyond logic.
How do you equally compare a couple of misfired auxiliary services to a superfluous "feature" that's been touted/advertised as a core differentiator for Apple's next gen flagship?

It's not the teams that set the company strategy, make the big decisions, decide which products have priority and are given publicity. Regardless of the size of the company, that all happens at board level and above and is restricted to a very small number of people, Cook and Ives in this case. They are currently focused only on the iPhone to the detriment of all other products.
That's the reason a lot of Mac hardware design is ten years old, why the Apple Watch is an unimaginative black slab with faces that are restricted to a small number of dull designs that all imitate watches rather than take advantage of having a hi res screen on your wrist and whose most interesting feature is the colour of the strap, why iOS and MacOS are largely incompatible (even when they use the same underlying libraries), why we see more publicity for emojis than any other product, why design shop no longer look to Apple for their hardware or software, why you never see any Mac touted as a games machine.

I seriously doubt many people in Asia are dropping $1,000 on a phone because of the variety of emojis it has. But I may be wrong. Perhaps you have data that says that they are?
