With the App Store, you have a reasonable assumption that it won't be a trojan for malware.

Any Linux distro has its own 'app store' which is just as trustworthy. And afaik macs offer a similar thing; it is just windows that is behind.

It is not enough to provide any basis of comparison to a PC ecosystem.
