So you take an uncomfirmed report over video proof. Got it. No wonder your "facts" are all wrong.

Yes, that is the case. Sideloading is just the ability to install apps from somewhere other than the official store(s) on the device.

I take a a report from an honest and reasonable interlocutor who has demonstrated domain knowledge on HN over a random YouTube video, yes.
If there is a wrong fact that I have stated, you would be able to show an example.
‘These people’ are generally replying to the suggestion that if people don’t like iOS because it it doesn’t allow sideloading, then why not buy Android?
From what you and others are saying, sideloading may not even be an appropriate term - you make it sound like you can just install software from the web on Android directly.
