Doesn't Apple track every app you install, access and run? Track you if you want to develop your own code for your own fully paid for device?
On other platforms, I can install apps on my devices without telling anybody.
And we know for a fact Windows does this.
Now you know that you were wrong. Windows allows you to disable telemetry and certainly doesn't report apps you install to Microsoft if you don't want it to. Same for Android and obviously for desktop and server Linux distros. This is simply not possible on iOS.
And if you are willing to jailbreak then you have the full suite.
Not without reinstalling weekly unless you reduce your privacy even further by also give Apple your banking details.

On these other platforms, you don't have to rely on your device being so insecure that it has a rootable vulnerability.
Do you have a source on the them tracking every app a user runs? Obviously they have to collect every app I install for updates and subscriptions, but collecting every run might be too much.
It's essentially Google Analytics, just for apps on iOS.
Where do you think those "Daily active devices" data comes from?
They (a) show what data is being sent e.g. stack traces and (b) provide the privacy policies.
At least on my device I am not seeing a list of apps being sent to Apple.
If your device offloads apps, they know when you download it again and thus can infer usage.
No one is claiming Apple is perfect, but this is a marked improvement of apps requiring tracking to function.
