As much as I love my android phone, I have to admit Apple takes privacy and security much more seriously.

How so? A Samsung or pixel with default settings would also behave that way, possibly even more securely because it wouldn't show the thieves your number.
Security yes, but privacy not so much...
If you’re talking about a stock Android OS on anything other than a Pixel, iOS wins in both regards. Stock on a Pixel, I don’t know that Apple is more secure, but if you’re installing apps via Google Play that use Google Play Services, iOS is certainly more private. Vs GrapheneOS on a Pixel, iOS is less private by far.
Better than bad is not good.
the methods used by thiefs to try and get access to your phone data.
It is not about accessing the data but to disassociate the current user from the phone so that the thief can reset the phone or/and it's components for new users.
This made me realize, as an android user, I have no idea what I'm supposed to do if someone steals my phone.
