The Better Together Update is making console, android, ios, win10, VR, Switch and Xbox One X have the same codebase, namely the bedrock engine. The bedrock engine is indeed what is used currently for what we call the pocket edition and Win10 edition.

Implementing this engine on new platforms is anything but easy, as that provides a very different coding and library interface. So calling the developers lazy, is simply ignorance of the work hours needed to make this real.

I don't know much about servers (not including realms), but in my understanding those are all re-implementation of parts of the original game. Thusly, they focus on vary parts ending up with various mini-games.

The realms on the other end are made by Microsoft, and provides full game play. Realms provide the full survival or creative game play experience, and the the Better Together Update allows this experience to be shared amongst the participating platforms.

In other words, why you call this an terrible update, and the developers lazy, I really don't get. This is truly an interesting update, and the possible feature parity it provides is also interesting.
