And when Google added it, it became accidental ransomware, locking them out of their system?
I'm not sure how this is a good argument. "Yeah, well, that thing that Google just released that's totally fucking broken, really badly. Does the iPhone even have the same thing?"
No, last I checked, the iPhone doesn't have an option for multiple users that results in an a ransomware-like-outcome.
Multi profile users have been around for many years, they're not new. Also the fanboyism in this comment is really weird, Apple isn't going to pay you.

What phone doesn’t have child labor somewhere along the line? Fairphone? They use 3rd party chips for some things.
No
