How is only allowing Apple’s App Store considered “choice”? What are you choosing?

I am choosing privacy, security, and user experience over Epic Games making extra money off of me.

That’s a false dichotomy. You aren’t giving up anything by letting other people sideload.

I am giving up privacy, security, and user experience by my chosen walled garden being forced to allow alternative app stores on the platform.

I already have the choice to pay significantly less for a worse product that doesn't have these things and allows sideloading.

You are the one removing my choice.
