> In the sense that it's annoying a lot of Android users, it certainly is paying off.

Do you have any data to back this up? From what I can tell, a majority of Lollipop reviews trend positive.

> there were a lot of Android users that bought Android devices because they didn't like iOS

Again, is this your presumption or do you have any source to back this up?

> iOS 7 caused a critical mass of my iPhone using network to want to switch to Android, and now with Lollipop the reverse is happening

A critical mass of my Android using network welcome and love the refreshing new look. Does that prove anything though? No, because my network doesn't include ~1 billion other Android users [1].

Design is a pretty subjective field, and what appeals to you doesn't necessarily appeal to others. You never really know what the majority camp is without an extensive study. What really gets me is when people start projecting their opinions as facts.
