don't iphones delete your sideloaded apps against your will and along with your data, if you don't use the ibstaller tool at once every week?
if so that's useless for anybody other than developers themselves who otherwise don't even want to use their own app.
I have no idea as I don't follow apple much, but I am aware that they are constantly trying to find ways to avoid complying with EU law, and that it is often rapidly struck down.
What you're describing here is not a failure of the law, but Apple trying real hard to find creative ways not to comply with it. To me it only shows that they are desperate, and that EU law is in fact getting to them.
If they keep at it it'll eventually end up in court, the case will take a couple of years, and they'll be slammed with a fine and asked to get their shit together.
