Right, because the cool part of upgrading your phone is trying to make it feel like its your phone, from scratch. Perishable software is anything but desirable, unless you enjoy having the very air you breathe sold to you.

    Well, depends on desirable "by whom".

    Imagine being a phone manufacturer and having all your users running a black box only you have the means to re-flash or upgrade, with software developers having to go through you so you can train users' phones to "behave like they have the software installed"

    It's a dictatorial phone manufacturer's wet dream.
