Eh, I do get your logic and it makes some sense but they literally do it already for MacOS. Apps request access to os level controls and you have to go in and say yes this app has access to control my computer.

MacOS doesn't fall under the same DMA requirements, so that's why it still gets Siri AI in the EU.

I've been wondering if this would be more dangerous than installing random apps. It might be. But they don't let people install just anything on iPhones. "Proper" computers are traditionally more open.
