Just as in the linked article, these two statements make it pretty clear:
> A) It should be harder for non-technical users to accidentally install apps designed to harm them.
> B) It should also be possible for anyone to run whatever code they want on hardware they own
Require something in the neighborhood of:
C) It should be possible to prevent people who can run whatever they want from wanting* to intentionally or accidentally install apps designed to harm them; or, where these harms are either not harmful or are reversible.
If you consider things that help with (C), and apply this principle — “Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize. Assume good faith." — then a lot of iOS/iPadOS developer and app ecosystem can be understood as positive intentionality around flavors of C.
* By being scammed, persuaded, misled, confused, coerced, etc.
