More choices, more competition amongst the companies are good for consumers. It forces the company to do better than the others each time. They may implement similar features as another platform, and try to make it better, then other companies will do the same.
You can also argue that without the iphone, we probably will not have the phones we have now. Full touch screen devices may still be using resistive touch screens and require a stylus or fingernails to use properly. I may not like using iOS, but i think that it pushed the mobile industry forward by a few years, and i can respect that. It forced the other players to react and try to improve the existing OS, or come up an entirely new OS like MS, RIM, is doing.
As mentioned above, unless you're a shareholder or have other vested interested in how well the company performs, i don't see why people want other platform or company to die.
