Why phones try to stick to a WiFi for dear life?

why do phones try to stick to a connected wifi network for dear life even though I’ve moved far from it that it’s barely useable anymore; all while I’m near another ‘remembered’ wifi network with very strong signal?

The phone knows the password of the other wifi that I’m near at, and i have set it to auto-join. But no it refuse to connect to it and prefer to hold onto where it’s last connected. I need to manually tap the other network everytime I move.

On a similar note, why does Spotify take so long to start playing a downloaded song, when connected like this? It shouldnt require any data at all
