No. It's phones. Phones hide their file directories.

iPhones do, I can get to them on android

It's a bigger pain than it needs to be though, im an Android user too

What phone? I have a feeling your vendor is obfuscating it as stock android has a very straightforward files app.

You can get to them, but how many people actually do, or even realize the directory tree exists?

How do people usually clean up their storage space? I guess if they never run out, they could avoid using it. Another thing I use it for is looking though downloads. Maybe some people just download a new version every time?

Most people's main use of storage is music, photos, and videos. All those can be managed from within their respective apps.

But is there a dedicated app for organizing your porn?

That was meant to be a joke but I'm pretty sure I saw a project posted on lemmy awhile back for that exact purpose : D

iOS has had a files app that looks very similar to the one on android for at least 5 years. Android had it first, but iPhones do not hide this app. It is installed by default just like on android.
