The user is choosing an iphone because their friends have one. Do you actually think the average person thinks about these things before buying a phone? No. They are just told by apple "you don't get to do that" once they realize they want to try it.

Remember, you (nor apple) are not their parent.

Most of the things I see Apple stop developers from doing I'm grateful for. Most developers have really bad ideas.

Feel free to not install their apps. Or in the case of the EU, feel free to only install apps from the official marketplace. That is your choice.

Other people should still be able to decide for themselves.
