Don't make yourself the single point of failure that the Chinese government could apply pressure on in the first place.

They know they are being induced to do these things, they have competitors (android) that have options to mitigate these things (side loading, actual encrypted backups) , but they don't do it for honestly suspicious or greedy reasons at this point, despite saying they're all about 'privacy' on bilboards.
