Apple updates seem to rollout much faster, with fewer impediments from carriers. Why can’t this be the case with Samsung phones after Samsung has tested the update? Why the extra barrier for Android phones?

Carriers selectively disable features on Samsung S series phones that they don’t like. For example, I understand that wifi-sharing/wifi hot-spot is actually hobbled on US phones. Some carriers want wifi-calling enable, some want it specifically disabled. I think i ever saw a list of over 100 items that carriers want Samsung to “fix” (like crippling wifi hotspot) before the updated firmware can be released.
