That's a bit of a false dichotomy don't you think?
You're looking at one extreme where the OS must hold the user's hand to get them to install alternatives. But that's not what users deserve. They just deserve to have the ability to choose to install what they want, rather than it being blocked, or deceptively hidden.
See this from the article:
> Operating systems regularly design their systems to undermine rather than facilitate consumer choice: they can make it difficult to change default settings; they can make it hard to install new browsers; they can deploy nudges and deceptive messaging to push consumers to their own products.
