I, the user.
Malicious apps sneak through the vetting process all the time.
Genuine, honest apps have to process unsafe content (be it we pages, messages) all the time.
One exploit should at most make single App vulnerable, not expose everything I have on my phone.
Strong, restrictive sandboxing, memory and execution protections are the only safe way.
And how is destroying the sandboxing related to having more rights as a consumer? You could still patch and repack them in the way Lucky Patcher does with ads, for example?
