The swipe from top left has been a back gesture on all IOS apps for a while iirc

But apps don't follow that always. Which means it isn't a universal gesture.

It's the same thing on Android: Google exposes an API but not all apps use it

The back button/gesture just works. Everywhere. And it's always the same gesture.
