Apple has always been incorrect in their arguments. How do I know? Android allowed sideloading since day one and most people have never even considered sideloading. I've never seen any news articles about Android security incidents related to sideloading an trojaned app as the initial vector. I'm sure it's happened, but it is not widespread. Those who did sideload were forced to do so by the extraordinarily popular app they wanted to run not being on the Google Play Store at all. Yeah, I'm talking about Fortnite. Sure there are techies like us who will sideload apps to skip YouTube ads or covertly save Snapchat nudes or sniff wifi packets or whatever, but we're a vanishingly small minority. Most android users didn't even know sideloading was an option and wouldn't care if they did. It's not zero risk, no arguing that. It's just pretty small, and (IMO) not worth the loss in user choice.
