Android doesn't need the Apple ecosystem features the EU wants to give it

Quick Summary:

If the market is functioning properly, brands like Apple, Samsung, Google, and others all have their own competing ecosystems.

For example, here's what the regulatory body had to say about AirPlay: "Apple shall implement an interoperability solution that provides third parties with access to the same AirPlay feature described in the preceding paragraph as available to Apple, in a way that is equally effective as the solution available to Apple".

Even as an Android user standing to benefit from accessories and services working better with my Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold, I can't help but wonder — is exclusivity ever okay? To me, it is.
