    The web is usually the prime attack vector, therefore updates to the web renderer are the most important. Many other features are in Play Services as well.

      That’s literally like saying because people typically break into houses from the back door, that you don’t need to keep the front locked. People self exploit themselves through many avenues, web is only one, compromised apps that act as Trojans, email attachments, fake links to verify/confirm accts, responding to some BS SMS that has them go to accts online. The “most important” would be a patched OS that would resist the attack regardless of entry point.
