There is literally malware spreading by masquerading as the Epic Games Store: https://www.zdnet.com/article/new-lokibot-trojan-malware-cam...

I still fail to see how this will apply to iOS.

iOS doesn't magically lose it's sandboxing and become Windows just because 3d party stores are allowed.

Sandboxing didn't prevent fake versions of Fortnite and other serious malware from spreading on Android, nor does it generally prevent information theft and privacy violation through malicious use of legitimate APIs.
