There's also the matter that gorilla glass hasn't had upgraded technology in years.

I believe all the major phone manufacturers have the technology for better/stronger phones they could build today but they’re phasing it out so we all keep going back to the well for new ones. For example, Samsung offering waterproof phones and then Apple following suit. I bet both had the ability to release waterproof phones well before they did and they just wanted to see who would blink first. From a recurring revenue perspective, it’s not in their best interest to release a dominant phone right away as they make more money by releasing smaller feature updates with each new phone.

Or should I take off my tinfoil hat?
