I used to think that too, until I saw some of the new crazy designs
where lots of SoC connections internally to the device run on USB.  Also
look at the USB offload stuff as one example of how the voice sound path
goes through the USB controller on the SoC on the latest Samsung Galaxy
phones that are shipping now :(

There's also devices with the modem/network connection going over USB,
along with other device types as well.  Android Auto is crazy with
almost everything hooked up directly with a USB connection to the host
system running Linux.

I wish, we are reaching the point where the stability of the overall
Android system depends on how well the USB controller works.  We are a
product of our success...
