The rest (UI, overall experience) is personal preference and subjective. They can "arguably make a better product" because they know exactly what's in the box. Android is developed to work on hundreds of device/hardware profiles.
Rooting isn't viable and hasn't been for a long time due to System Integrity checks which cause a lot of "needed" apps to not vibe well (Wallet, Call Screening, etc) -- and while there are ways around this, it's not worth the hassle. The only benefits of root now are system level ad filtering, etc. But being able to sideload specific builds, my own apps in development, etc is way easier. Not to mention their developer license is cheaper (which helps me a lot). As a developer, this is important to me. To the average person, this means nothing and is worthless.
I don't have ads on YouTube, Spotify, Reddit, TikTok, the list goes on and on -- can't do that with iPhone (without an additional cost, if at all).
To each their own, but for me, Android is the champ. Apple creates a great product because they make the hardware, and software. Google makes a great product while not knowing precisely what the hardware is, they're not developing with the same things in mind.

Pixel? Google doesn't know precisely the hardware in those? I am an Android fan myself, i think Motorola is an example of great and novel hardware/software integrations.
No response to the fact that iPhones are updated vs android phones? the iPhone XS released in 2018 is supported on the current iOS where as the officially supported Sammy's and even Pixels drop off on 2021.
"sideloading" for developers. There is a developer ecosystem for Apple products as well and there are multiple way so of "side loading" apps not on the app store not just TestFlight or xcode cloud but you can even use "device management profiles" to add apps.
Totally about the apple tax. hahaha $25 for google vs $99 for apple is steep.
I have both devices personally, but I main carry my S25 or Pixel 9Pro XL because i can get blue bubbles on my Android devices with some work but that too is an extremely specific use case. So lets back up
Go iPhones!

You're also not wrong at LTS updates/support-- but that too speaks (at least in my opinion) to having a very limited line of hardware profiles to build and QA with. Android has no choice but to move on, move forward, etc due to having to invest so heavily in QA testing across hundreds if not thousands of hardware profiles. They simply don't have the will (they absolutely have the money, but at what point is it justified to spend) on QA'n new builds on 10 year old phones, and all variations of phones from 10 years ago, etc. I'd be curious to know how many QA teams they have, probably more than I imagine.
The workarounds for getting things sideloaded (I believe using shared dev keys?) is pretty ingenious on iOS but not worth the hassle. But that's just a "I'm too lazy" problem for me.
Go iPhones! err wait ... what am I saying?!
