Being an engineer and being smart are not synonyms. I’ve met quite a few dumb engineers in my life. Fine engineers, quite shit at making any non specifically engineering related decisions. Just the implication that choosing Apple is the smart choice is plainly a disingenuous argument. Every choice is an exercise in compromise, and choice of smartphone OS vendor is no different.
Remember that doctors used to prescribe tobacco and taking up smoking. Authority doesn’t automatically means someone is always right on everything.

The fact that I mentioned those two things separately should indicate to you that I believe they don’t always go together. I mentioned it and called out the specific services we support to counter the claim that only “non-tech” people buy iPhones. That’s complete and utter bullshit.

Good thing I didn’t say that then, hu? I said the smart group of guys I work with all chose iPhones. YOU read into that and came out with “smart people ONLY choose iPhones”.
You’re just adding your voice to the original person I responded to. Neither of you seem to be capable of just being happy with your purchase. You must believe that iPhone users are stupid. Does it make you feel better or something?
How pitiful. The only one overly aggressive about defending their own purchase is you. I never said anything about either choice being better. Specifically I argued the opposite. But you seem extremely sensitive and eager to fight online for a multi billion conglomerate tech corp. They don’t need you, and no one was attacking you in particular. I was just commenting, you know, in a public forum, to try and provide an additional perspective that overall doesn’t actually differ much from yours. If you want private conversations go to a chat.
