I absolutely and completely agree with you. I’m just saying, my aging mother does not. Having the option, to her, would make the iPhone a far inferior product. She is not alone in her opinion.
I just don’t understand that. It doesn’t add any complexity, you can literally ignore it. In fact, I’m guessing most Android users don’t know you can install apps outside the Play Store, so that’s an example of it literally not mattering if you don’t want to use that feature.
The panic at the existence of additional options you don’t use and will never use is, unfortunately, strong in some people. It is what it is.
I also have an iPhone and absolutely would love a 2nd store. I’m trying to figure out how to side load as it is, so I can get a version of YouTube that can keep playing audio while the screen isn’t on. I’d love that. My mother would be in fits of panic at the thought.

Sure, and you can have that by not installing stuff outside the App Store. I don’t see how having the option is a bad thing…
