Because it represents a generalized view of how slow the CPUs are on Android vs iOS. Don't care so much about browser v browser.
It's a combination of factors including optimization effort, the gameability of the benchmark, and CPU speed.
And the next gen pixels come out tomorrow, so probably the worst possible time to evaluate pixel perf.
Tested the 835 chip the Pixel 2 will use. Scored 60-65 in the Samsung S8 and OnePlus 5. Still atrocious.

Some ways: more users can afford it; Android vendors don't need to make their own chips.
I think you might be allowing pro-apple biases overwhelm your usual attitudes about asking software to fix perf based on microbenchmarks.
