Users get even more frustrated when they want to play something and it does not work. Security is always a usability trade-off. There is also an argument to be made that it is better for Apple to introduce a few bugs adding support for viewing/playing/etc random things than end users googling "how to play X" and downloading whatever app appears first in the results. Remember the good 'ol days when everyone had Adobe Acrobat installed so they could open PDFs and it had a new 0day every month? Then one day Chrome added PDF.js and exploitation in the wild dropped off as people stopped downloading shitware to fill out rental applications.
