Comment on Google Tightening Control of Androidparent

Perhaps that statement came out slightly more hyperbolic than I meant it.

The fact remains that Android's fragmentation is something I deal with on a daily basis. Any time spent fixing issues that crop up on particular phones is time I don't spend adding features to our application. Keeping customers from knowing the joys of fragmentation is one of the things I spend a lot of thought and work at.

Yeah, that's fair, and I don't want to fall on the side of "there's nothing to see here" either. Talking about a platform's deficiencies is essential. I'm just speaking to the general "fire! fire!" rhetoric that comes out a lot of the time.
