the store is part of the OS, you cannot delete the app store, you cannot use an alternative app store, and you cannot turn the ads off. Ads are part of the OS.

Ads are only in the store, not the OS in general.
Your eyes are part of your head, and your head is part of your body.
You have eyes in your head, and not in the rest of your body.
We don’t say you have eyes in your body, even though you can make the logical case for this truth, because it would be misleading in the same way.
There are ads in the App Store - we agree on that.
