I don't see the problem here. Nobody should be able to install or disallow installation of software on a device except for the end user.

This is a value statement. There is more public concern and support for security and freedom to use commercial software than there is for using it as a Stallmanesque general-purpose computer.
End users aren’t phone experts, and a huge portion of end users would like to completely delegate this decision to phone security experts at their handset manufacturer.
And nobody is trying to stop them.
I'm not your grandma, though, and I'll thank you (and Apple) for not treating me as if I were.
