Treating developers well still won’t be a priority.

Also not treating users right. Or any quality control at all. As long as it makes money, every crap is allowed.

Can't get rid of all these scam apps. That'd hurt our bottom line!

tim apple thinks that's how you break a monopoly. 'look! competition; nothing to see here.'

It would be really cool if instead of having to install more app stores, the App Store app was like fdroid: a front end in which we add repositories. There would of course be apples repository installed as default, but on top you could just enable epic game's repository or the store's repo.

Nice idea. That would in theory, assuming it's optional, allow for screening of an app by apple prior to installing, to thwart malicious repositories.

Sounds like Google's approach to pretty much everything.
