#3Maybe Samsung has a running bet with Huawei over how much crappy code you can push to how many devices. Huawei is still very likely winning, as they had that period when they had to rewrite most of their router software after being outed as having stolen Cisco's code. They just plain wrote the same shit, but replaced everything good with about 2 bad things instead.
