"If you're unhappy with [insert device platform: iOS/Mac/PC/Android/…], then just switch".
This stance basically requires the material wealth to just go and buy a new computer or phone on a whim. The type of person who already buys the latest hardware every year, or even more frequently.
Someone who plans to use a device for many years often can't "just switch", or chooses not to for other valid reasons, like waste. Even if one can afford a new phone, the current one may not damaged or degraded enough to justify replacement.
