If attestation becomes "a thing" and apps cant be run on non-attesting OSs it could very well in practicality be banned since people wont want to use a platform they cant use their apps with. If you have a bank app that doesnt have a website version that could be a dealbreaker for GOS if its not a dealbreaker for you bankibg with that bank
