The Amazon store will remain open for Fire tablets if I'm reading right, and those are AOSP-based. So it's kind of similar. Again, not that I'm fine with it, but that I think it's technically not unprecedented.

It's not even remotely similar. The app store vanishes from your phone, with no recourse.

Don't make excuses for Amazon, please.
