If the only thing standing in the way of closed platforms is that they have to be marketed as closed, you're just going to get everyone marketing their software like Apple does and nothing else will change.

Here in the States iOS, XBox, PlayStation and Nintendo's various gaming platforms are all perfectly legal walled gardens.

If you don't like that, you have to do what they did in the EU and change the law.

Fraud is illegal here today, and Google's marketing was definitely fraudulent, so there is clearly something that can be done about it today.
