At the end, those issues are real. Google has proven it values a profitmargin of 70% on Android over their customers values (privacy, add-loading, bloatware).
If we can all agree on Google intentions, your question should be: why don't people prefer Sailfish over Android?
I've been using a Sony Xperia XA for about a month now, let me tell you something:

1. Updates <-- Use any custom rom if updates are not coming anymore
2. No privacy harmed <-- Use XPrivacy
3. Not crammed with bloatware: choose what you want (fair) <-- Root, and you can uninstall everything you want
4. Root access <-- You can root Android devices as well
5. Where are the advertisements? <-- Root, and you can remove all ads, even inside apps.
6. Not willing to pay a company's 70% profitmargin for harming your privacy, cramming it with bloatware and adds. <-- See all the points above.
7 (possible) android support through Alien Dalvik. <-- Native Android support, instead of half working dalvik.


I'm actually pretty happy with my rooted Sony XA.
