Is it because of "bloatware" on Samsung? That's a nothing now. I use the Google Now Launcher and I don't notice Samsung inserting itself into anything I do on my phone. The Pixel looks DOA to me.

Pixel 2 has/had the best camera of any smartphone on the market, and by all previews the Pixel 3 makes it even better, so no the S9 does not have a better camera. The other things you mention like the headphone jack are completely valid and the reason I went with a LG G7 instead of waiting for the Pixel 3. But the main reason people buy Pixels is because they want the best camera and/or the stock Android experience, which gives you the newest versions first and updates far longer than Samsung gives you on their devices
