I think you missed my point. Even if that is the case, it is still another store that the hardware vendor installed. Most likely uninstallable without rooting the device. Steam does not come preinstalled (except for the steam deck), users choose to install it on platforms they own. Steam is removable from all platforms with minimum fuss. Steam can and will install competing app stores. None of these facts are true on Apple, Google, or other preinstalled mobile app stores.
