Presumably, they could just treat iOS like macOS, where there already is a notarization system that covers apps distributed outside of the Mac App store.

Also, people forget that iOS itself has many security protections built into the platform itself that go beyond App Store review.

Fascinating read, especially https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2019/09/for-t...
I’d also hope that the store are required to enforce the same security protections as the main App Store.
I don’t want buying an app to now come with the risk of uncancellable subscriptions, gross invasion of privacy, malware, etc
