I think we'd be better off if we had people who curated apps, then rate the curators.

The App Store has such a limited interface, that's it like walking into a minefield. You can't tell if something is crap or not until you've blown your money.

Apple doesn't even try to prevent you from buying crapware because they've already made their money.

Android used to have an hour-long window after you purchased an app to get a full refund with the tap of your screen. Then they knocked it down to 15 minutes, which, depending on the app, may not be long enough to install and test out the app. Then as you suggested, Apple has nothing like that in place at all. It's kind of frustrating as a customer.
