Yeah, but if you have plenty of RAM on Android, there's a chance those apps you left in the background will still be running when you go back to them, rather than doing the usual Android thing of just restarting them.
yeah i get that, but i often only have like 2 apps open on my android phone (maybe three). And even if you didn't have enough ram there's no reason android can't cache old apps to page file or something. Then you don't need to restart them, just load it from page. Given how fast modern phone storage is likely to be, this should be pretty negligible.
