ELI5: Why do games on PC/phone crash sometimes but they almost never do that on a PS or an XBOX?

They defintelty do crash on console, but it's less likely. It's the same as apps for Windows/Android vs macOS/iOS, optimization. Console game makers know exactly what machine will be running their games. For Windows/Android, there are countless configurations, so it is virtually impossible to optimize the game for all those different setups, which can cause crashes.
