I've tried Android, I don't like it. Apple has put a lot more thought into their UX. Also the Apple hardware is better.
Telling someone to use Android because they want control of their iPhone is a ridiculous argument because they aren't substitutes for each other.

Exactly, which is why I said to make it hard to side load. Require you to run an app on a Mac laptop and write some code to make it work. Make it so that there are so many steps that only the most dedicated are interested. But just make it possible.
And besides, somehow Android doesn't seem to have a widespread problem with this, despite allowing side loading.
