I think it’s to keep the weight in control.

For the price of autonomy?
Steve Jobs would not have made such mistake.
iPhone didn’t have FM Radio built in.
At that time Nokia and other mobiles had FM Radio and for that, as most electronic engineers would understand, Nokia had to create capacitor and inductor in mobile which made non apple phones bulky.
Such design decisions are critical.
Either way I am happy with Android My son received an apple tablet, you can’t even accesss apple store without credit card details. There isn’t such constraint in android.
Almost all apps on Android are free only pro versions are charged.
Well, my sister has iPad and no account, she can access Apple store without credit card details. Interesting why your’s cannot. 
Same for my iPhone. 
I give up trying to make an apple account… returned the table in the same day.
I think it is more about habit of each user.
Once used with Android one will not easily switch to Apple and viceversa.
Probably it’s all about how comfortable with the usage and the utility.
