The OS itself being proprietary isn't a reason to not have sideloading or alternative stores.

Windows is proprietary too yet you've always been able to download a .EXE from arbitary web sites.

Who argued otherwise? On the topic of F-Droid in particular not being available for iOS, there _is_ a reason behind it.
