Honestly it's a very exact reflection of todays modern smartphone world.
It takes a lot of time to develop an app correctly for each platform.
Most Android developers I speak to agree that Android is just not as easy and nice to develop for as iOS.
And also most developers see the best return on investment on iOS. You can certainly get the 'downloads' on Android, but it just doesn't translate into the same amount of revenue as users tend to expect more for free over there.
Makes sense to go to the other platforms once you feel you've exhausted the iOS market (though you'd have to be doing pretty well to claim that), or your produce relies on massive download growth (but not necessarily revenue)
It's not the developer being stupid, or trying to play fanboi etc when taking this path, it's just the reality of the app game.
