But what do you want to ensure: that grandma only installs malware on her phone via mistakes she is individually responsible for, or that she doesn't install malware on her phone? Maybe for the abstract 'grandma' you would take the first option. But for someone you personally care about, you're not going to choose the option that predictably ends with her being harmed, even if it will be her own fault when it happens.

You may notice we don’t cover all power outlets because kids (or grandma) may stick their fingers in them either.

I trust them not to do that.

Then again, if iOS has a setting that ‘enables’ the unsafe app store I’m confident grandma won’t reach it since it’s hidden behind the actual passcode, not a fingerprint.

Power outlets in the UK have a mechanism to cover the live holes with a rubber plug unless the Earth pin is connected, so yes, we do.
