That's a pretty smart argument, must say I agree and it's along the lines of a train of thought I had afterwards. It's all about friction, and how they can minimise it, take the iTunes Store for example and how people used it. We know they sell a lot of music through it, most likely to people who pirated because who wants to buy a CD and rip it, and make sure it has the right tags and art when it's there for a reasonable price. They decreased the friction and it paid off. They did it again with the App Store, and created an ecosystem that allowed a cottage industry for indie developers that only vaguely existed 8 years ago.
Apple excels at reducing friction for users to achieve what they want to achieve, I wouldn't be surprised if they had this in mind even more so than improving security.
