  Unfortunately, it’s not a win, mostly because enough people will think it is and stop thinking about it, let alone talking about it or pushing back.

  Sure, it’s a win for power users. It’s not a win at all developers trying to publish an app without getting Google’s approval, since nobody is going to follow this process to install an app.
