Context dude. It's all about comparisons not categories. You can put things in similar categories but once you compare them on the same level despite having completely different attributes, you crossed the line.

That's also why we don't compare smartphone sales with home phones.

This is irrelevant. You are assuming because they are part of the same class, they are compared the same. The reason the term handheld exists is to distinguish it from home consoles, for easier analysis. As a whole, they are both part of the same class, dedicated gaming devices aka consoles.

All squares are rectangles, not all rectangles are squares.

Wasn't that the exact thing I just said? Or you meant to replay to someone else?

They can both be in the same category but that doesn't make them the same. As such they shouldn't be compared as the same. Refer to any of my otehr posts in here to get a better picture of my point.
