My experience was a little different. Nobody I know thought that you didn't need copy and paste or MMS messaging.

The only case you mention where I saw a lot of koolaid drinking is multitasking, and that's probably because there is a kernel of truth in that case - it's tricky to do right without harming battery life or user experience. (That's only a reason why it might take longer to implement well, though. Definitely not a reason to leave it out of the platform permanently.)

The koolaid drinking about iOS products that bothers me the most is the claim that an active stylus isn't worth including. Anyone who's used OneNote can see the potential there. If anything gets me to drop iOS, this will be the reason.
