That seems like a concession that people who currently enjoy the first-party-only app store situation may indeed lose something if third-party-app-stores become a thing.

You can argue (as I think you are) that those losses are outweighed by the gains of a more open ecosystem, but to many users they are meaningful losses.

No matter what choice you make, something else will be affected, that doesn't mean you should not be able to have any choice in the first place.
