There's only one reason for anyone, or for me, at least, to choose Android, and it's the only reason I've consistently chosen Android from the very first Google Developer Phone: It's more open.
So, they don't want me to even have that one reason to keep choosing Android, I guess.
the question isn't whether you still have a reason to choose android - the question is what alternative do you have but android (or iOS).
