That explanation doesn't make sense. Apple is not permitting arbitary browsers on the platform. > To help keep users safe online, Apple will only authorize developers to implement alternative browser engines after meeting specific criteria and committing to a number of ongoing privacy and security requirements Given Apple is going to continue gatekeeping browsers, the malware excuse just doesn't work. Malware browsers wouldn't get on the stores in the first place, unless Apple fucks up. And even if that happened, it would be quickly revoked. This is one of those places where Apple's restrictons conflict with their scaremongering. If they'd only done one or the other, one could buy it. But when the combination of the two is nonsense, it becomes clear that the scaremongering has no basis in reality, and is just a justification made up after the fact and the real motivation is something else.
