Getting "out there" first does count for a lot but it's not the final answer.
The advantages do lead to the idea of "release early and release

The linked "notice" for MSO on Android seems to indicate it is not for
Tablets, but only for Phones.
That is a big difference.
So we still do not have to worry. Also, I wonder if that is actually
