With a jailbreaked iPhone device, you can possibly install Dolphin through a separate package manager (Cydia, Sileo, etc.)

Yes, but iPhones are not uniformly jailbreakable, and restricting yourself to a niche like that makes it harder to get people in (as users or as developers). You've essentially moved from a popular platform (iOS) to a very niche one (jailbroken iOS).

We should use a term like liberated rather than jailbroken. The phrasing leads to a conclusion about the behavior which isn't correct.
