Agreed. It makes no sense to remove the dashboard app from 10.15 and Craig federighi is a piece of crock.
Tim Cook and Apple like to make things worse for the customer. Opting for the proprietary connector that isn't better than an open standard like the M.2 form factor.
Apple can come up with a proprietary battery that's worse than lithium-ion.

I always wondered why Apple doesn't have a wallpaper database built right into the wallpaper picker in the Settings.app.
Always updating. huge collection. catergorized. in the cloud.

Is wallpaper really a big deal when it gets covered up by the grid of icons?
The worst is when people put pictures of their kids as their wallpaper... yet you can barely see it. You might see little Sally's face peeking out from behind the Facebook icon.
If we could place icons anywhere... then I could see people getting excited about wallpaper!

That is definitely not true. Many can't afford an iPhone, and own lower spec models. Not everyone runs around with high end Samsungs and Huaweis.
Normally a drawer that holds all the apps so they don't clutter the home screens. Android has that so you swipe up from the home screen to see all the apps. it basically allows you to utilize the home screens for widgets mostly.
Or the real reason is to ask how much phone do you need to run the apps you have and use? That's the real question. I know and have seen many that can afford iPhones but just don't buy them because if a cheaper phone can run what they need just the same then that's all that matters to them. Alot also don't care about the extra features like cameras and updates. I say more power to their wise decision.
What you wrote definitely isn't true. An iPhone can be had for as little as $150... brand new, in box. The same logic you applied to everyone not buying high end Androids applies to not everyone buys high end iPhones.
We think alike. Having legacy game console emulators, Kodi, and Torrent clients would definitely make the need to have an Android phone as a secondary device redundant.
More robust background multitasking management could come in 2020 due to battery improvements, in addition to more RAM (rumor says up to 6 GB starting for all 2020 iPhones) and the A14 chip.
Yep! Solid black since iPhone 4S in 2011
I spend zero time admiring my homescreen. I use apps!
Hmm i must be lucky then, never had an issue with personal hotspot as longbas I have a reliable 4g signal, but rhen again I’m not evryone and I’m not in the us, so the redicules split between data usage over hotspot and data usage from the phone itself has never been a consideration data is data, but then again we don’t heva unlimited data plsns
