clearly paints me as either anti-Apple or anti-Android: and anti-Apple in the context of my comment.

Which I totally agree with, but that wasn't the topic of the discussion at that point; nor is it relevant to a chart that indicates total market share. We were talking about developer interest in the iOS and Android platforms. Hence total market share is the topic, not comparisons between specific devices.

By all means make the point that developers are more likely to make sales to owners of high end devices, and so a high end presence will resist losing developers due to the erosion of market share better than a low end presence, but, as I said, the article is wrong to pretend that low end devices should not be considered to be part of the market share.
