The problem is that the stock OS is a walled garden. No common user will flash their phone.

I have an idea - make this issue solved via direct popular vote. Ranked choice, variants range from "Apple owns your butts" to "Apple should be punished with its monthly margin for failing to deliver hourly orgasms with its devices" to "Apple open sources and PD's everything or Apple leaves".

They'll be interested themselves in making the OS as convenient for normal usage as possible. Including the walled garden part. OK, just a thought experiment.
