Kosta Eleftheriou has done a ton of scholarship into the proliferation of bad apps. (Not to mention, poor UX such as archaic search.) People imagine multiple app stores on iOS would be shady data-hungry operations from the likes of Meta or Google. But opening things up would just as likely, and perhaps more so, foster curated, transparent app stores such as an iOS equivalent to F-Droid.
