All these points are moot as the main Appstore would be made much less valuable because it is assumed many major app players would diverge away. Even quoting the line, it was still largely glossed over:

> ...prefer the consistency of a single, consistent, secure source of Apps.

What is consistent when every app player is part of a different app store? Suddenly Microsoft has their own, Google has their own, Epic Games as their own, etc.

No thank you.



> What is consistent

What is consistent would be your experience if you choose to only use the Apple App store. That experience would remain consistent.

> No thank you.

Then don't use those app stores?

If the conversation is about your rights, as an Apple user, then other people doing what they want with their own phones does not matter.

Someone can, right now, remove their app from the Apple app store, and nobody would claim that if they did they, then they are infringing on your rights as a user. So I am not sure why you would bring that up.

Nobody would claim that you are forced to do anything, if an app just removed themselves completely from an app store, so that is not relevant.
