Wait, are you saying that "90% of mobile time is spent in apps vs 10% in browsers" tells the story that "consumers vastly prefer native apps"? I don't think the connection is that strong.
Taking myself as an example, I may spend 90% of my time on my cell phone using the Messages app, the Phone app and a handful of apps that I installed a long time ago, but I'm much more likely to try out a new web app than I am to try out a new native app. Looking at my phone now, I see exactly one native app that I installed in 2020.
