The US is structured so you need a car unless you’re one of a lucky few in an urban area not built for cars.
People in other countries are also reliant on cars. Even if public transport is available, it’s often overpriced and unreliable.
The problem isn’t the raw cost of gas, it’s the relative increase in cost which raises the cost of living in step because you cannot live here without a car.
The same is true in the rest of the world and there the cost is much higher.

People in the rest of the world cannot take you seriously when you whine about costs per gallon and the rest has to pay the same amount per liter.

Videos that stop at 1080p often have an increased bitrate option with Premium (no idea how YT decides when to offer it). 1440p and 4k are available to all without Premium.

Are there any real advantages?
No 5 seconds forced delay when using ad blockers
Higher bitrates available
Ad blockers don’t work on Chromecast, other solutions don’t offer easy casting from the phone app
Better value than audio only services like Spotify

Well, of course. All notification contents go through Apple’s servers (or Google’s in case of Android).

Certain people in Iran also can access the internet to post announcements on Twitter etc.
By your logic Iran’s internet hasn’t been blacked out either.

A nationwide intranet isn’t internet.

There will always be limitations unless massive changes occur such as Google open sourcing their Play Services as part of AOSP. MicroG has limited resources to implement compatibility.
