Imagine how shitty it would be to have your phone do the Windows popup "restarting in 4 hours" and then you're forced to be out of a phone for 10-30 minutes.

Worse yet if the update fails...

For me it's way shittier to have an insecure phone. I would even install a Clippy launcher on Android if I could have the latest security and feature updates the same day that they are released (without changing phones every year or using custom ROMs).

Those are not the only 2 alternatives. For instance, iOS has neither of these problems.

You're right, unfortunately for my use case and taste iOS just doesn't work.

Other than the price.

Any phone above 300€ is not worth my money, I am not buying a gaming desktop.
