Facebook was extremely miffed at the required Privacy Disclosures that became required on the App Store a year or two ago, the one that lists, like a nutritional label, what data the app gathers. Facebook's looks like the ingredients list of a cheap-o, pre-wrapped donut from a gas station. Meta has already been caught abusing enterprise provisioning profiles to get around App Store rules. Many App Store rules are not technical, that you can get around by simply crafting the API to behave a certain way. Many of them take the form of a "gentlemen's agreement" type of rule. You have to convince either the code-inspection algos or the human app reviewers you are following them before your app gets listed. Many of these rules do not exist on the Play Store. So of course Facebook is just on the Play Store, they have no motivation to leave! They've *already* attempted to break out of the guardrails on the App Store.
