You're again mistaking security and software safety for anticompetitive business practices.
Apple loves to mix this too - after all, their marketing is spending a lot of money persuading it that those two are related. They're not. Even currently, AppStore is not without malware, so they have failed at that goal and us users have paid too great of a price by distortion of no.1 tenement that makes capitalism a functioning and decent system to live in: competition.
It's like an abused wife being afraid to run away from her husband because she thinks he's the only one that can protect her.
