I saw it the same way. I'd be a terrible idea to let Apple remove/install AppStore apps without the customer's permission. I don't know if it already does something similar but in the next OS update it could block the usage and force to delete refunded apps.

Why couldn't the refund be conditional on granting removal permission? One issue would be they could still restore from a backup I suppose.
