>Install any App Store

That wasn't one of the bullets in the posted article. Do you have a reference to the language of the law that says this?

I am guessing if you can "install any software" (as the DMA says), then the device manufacturer can't prevent you from installing another app store.

Actually, "software application stores" are explicitly mentioned in the relevant Article 6(4) (https://data.consilium.europa.eu/doc/document/PE-17-2022-INI... page 129).
