Globally Apple has a 15% Marketshare, 53% in North America, 32% in Europe — those users are locked into a "shitty browser" and not willing to forego their other creature comforts they are not going to switch brands on your account.

Meanwhile Chrome even on desktop has a reputation for being CPU and memory hungry. Apparently some people want lighter-weight alternatives. One has to wonder how pessimized JavaScript performs on Google GO on a "shitty phone".
