Luckily there’s one mainstream and about a half dozen non-mainstream mobile OSes besides Apple, and almost anyone looking for the best in anything would not have Apple hardware in the first place.

You almost definitely did not do constant work outside, or especially in an oven, when it was 100F even in your made up world where there was no AC 30 years ago. At 100F 30% humidity you take breaks in the shade every 20 minutes for 20 minutes or you just die as a human. That humidity goes up 10% or that temp (lets say in an unairconditioned truck) goes up 10 degrees, and you literally cannot sweat away the heat, your body has no actual way to cool itself off no matter how much water you drink or how cold that water is.

Millions of people would consider their prayers answered if they could switch places with us.

Sure and millions would be immediately suffering if they switched places with us, including people you’d least expect. The truth of the matter is most people are not ambitious. They don’t want much, they desire even less. Every single person aged 20-50 that I know just wants their rent to be less than half their income, access to healthcare, and enough money left over to do something in their free time. Yeah, it’s great we aren’t spend our mornings tending to the fields and flocks and don’t have to worry about pickling and canning every single food item we get our hands on. It’d be nicer if that didn’t cost me more than half of my waking hours and 90% of my physical and emotional energy. I’d be willing to give up so much ‘modernity’ for just more free time, and it really sucks the guy that has never suffered in his life is telling me I need to give up both so his heirs can never know suffering.
