Some people need to be protected from themselves though. I don't receive support requests anymore from my grandparents since they switched from a Windows-based computer to a ChromeOS system. It suits their needs while being locked down, and it limits the amount of damage that can be done.
Isn't ChromeOS secure because of sandboxing, not because of curation? And isn't the situation similar with iOS? I wouldn't really expect Apple's curators (or automated analysis) to reliably detect malware, but I expect the OS to limit what kind of damage can be done.
