As long as your interests align with Apple's, yes. But if they stop being aligned you basically have no control. So it's a double edged sword, it basically comes down to personal choice.

As long as there is an escape hatch which macOS has. The key problem IMHO with iOS is not the AppStore but the lack of an escape hatch.

Running something from outside the AppStore should be an option. It could be a switch or toggle you could turn on with a warning.
