OTOH Android bug can be patched quickly only on Nexus devices where Alphabet has a full control over source code, or it has to be a bug in a component that is updatable via Google Play. Everything else is close to impossible to patch, because of the open source nature of Android. Let's say Samsung wants to patch their devices. First they have to decide what versions to patch. More versions = more work = more money spent => they choose carefully and probably patch only their premium phones instead of going for the most used models to get more devices patched. Then they need to merge the source code of Alphabet bugfix into their own source code for each version they decided to patch, compile it, test it at least rudimentary, and beg carriers to prioritise it, if they still have a say, I do not know. And that's what every Android phone maker is supposed to do to patch the bug. That's something that's acceptable if you have a couple of phones with your OS on it. If you have a billion, it becomes inacceptable.
