Fighting "Glitches"

in the recent months i've been observing more and more of these "glitches", and whilst i'm sure many of you may disagree, i just wanted to know if other people are also experiencing the following:
Short Jabs - when your bot is too close to range and too far to melee, it does a short jab and punches the air, usually follow by the AI countering you, happens quite regularly
AI blocking SP after 5 hit combo - somehow the AI can throw up their block at the end of your 5 hit combo, happens occasionally
AI initiating SP while blocking - very rare, but i don't believe a player can do this
Broken blocks - after playing this game for over 12mths you know when you have legitimately screwed up, but recently i've had several wtf moments where i was sure i blocked an attack in time, or was already blocking, yet i still got hit

Over time you get used to these things. You're right.
Case in point:
1. (Mid-range) motorola moto m.
Mediatek MT6755T on Android 7.0.
4/32GB.
Game takes slightly longer to load vs iPhone (it always has) and graphics are decidedly mediocre, however since day 1, game runs smooth as silk and never overheats nor crashes.
2. iPhone 7 Plus. Apple A10 Fusion on iOS 13.3. 3/128GB.
During the iOS 10/11 days this device absolutely nailed F2F. Fast loading, smooth, beautiful graphics albeit with minor overheating.
Best everything.
But since F2F 8.0.2, plenty of issues have started to creep up.
When the PowerVR GPU was rendered obsolete by Apple (and devs) earlier last year, everything started getting worse.
TBF it's a 3yr + gadget.
They're just not prioritizing rigs considered deprecated by manufacturers, and developers and programmers are following suit.
All gearing up for latest and greatest.
Just as I've discovered with almost all devices, the Mid-range phones are the cockroaches of the tech world.
When all flagships stutter and fail, Mid-range devices find a way to survive.
They were built for people who can hardly afford luxuries, hence the longevity and constant dev support.
I usually get the best, most reliable F2F gaming experience from midrange phones.
Not the prettiest, but I'd trade graphics for long battery life and stability anytime.
