But most importantly, fixing text editing isn’t seen as important enough in the war between Android and iOS. It’s not the flashy feature that shifts your Net Promoter Scores.

This kind of stuff is exactly why I hate non-free hardware and software, it kills experimentation. It sucks so much that there are no good options for free mobile phones. And for this you wouldn't even have to free your software, you'd simply have to give the user the ability to tinker with their OS outside of the walled garden that is the app-store filled with these shitty cash- and data-grabby webapps.
