Point 1: If you don't want to use alternative stores, then don't use them.
Point 2: Human review never stopped security problems, and has never, ever been considered of any real value when it comes to designing secure systems.
Point 3: iPhone's response to various 0days has been less than stellar. Right now, when a security issue pops up, we have literally 0 choice other than wait for Apple to fix it - even if the fix can be written up and sent out immediately, we have to wait for Apple to package an update. Giving more choice in how fast you can patch your system actually increases your security.

And I am well aware there's ways out of the "jail" (as in "jailbreak") I just choose to stay inside. Same goes for the dark web, rather just stay in the light.
