> "Sideloading is dangerous because users could install malware" and "We'll let any iPhone sideload your app if you jump through some hoops and pay us" are incompatible statements, but Apple makes both of them. I'm missing how these are incompatible statements. You might as well say "if Apple thought certain apps could be dangerous they wouldn't have an App Store or even allow their own first-party apps on iPhones." Of course the position of Apple is that they should be able to approve every app/vendor before it's allowed to be installed on iPhones. The fact that they do approve some apps and vendors isn't incompatible with their position.
