What does 'orders of magnitude more advanced' mean? I would associate 'more advanced' with higher levels of abstraction. The fact that Android allows filesystem style access would make it less advanced in that sense.

A unix shell is highly customisable and powerful in the hands of a knowledgeable user, but I wouldn't describe it as advanced.

C++ is a very powerful programming language with tons of features, but I wouldn't describe it as advanced.
